What is the Tiny Tot Review?
The Tiny Tot Review is a judged costume event where children ages 0–5 dress up in western or Land Run of 1893–era attire and take the stage to showcase their outfits, smiles, and personalities. Kids are judged on outfit authenticity, stage presence, and personality, with awards given for standout performances!
This is a cherished Perry tradition, bringing families together to celebrate our rural roots and support a love for the parade. keeping meaningful rural traditions alive while inspiring a connection to our local heritage is important to fostering our mission here at the Cherokee Strip Museum.
