SUMMIT, NJ, February 6, 2020

New Jersey Family
, NJ’s leading parenting and lifestyle source, announced the winner of its Cover Kid contest. After reviewing hundreds of entries from around the state, 6-year-old Jessica Li of Basking Ridge was crowned the winner and appears on the magazine’s Feb/March cover.
The magazine asked parents to share a photo of their kid for a chance to appear on the cover. Judges looked for a bright smile and bubbly personality, both of which won over contest judge

in Philadelphia.
As the winner of the contest, Jessica received a cover shoot by

. “We were thrilled to hear Jessica was the winner,” said Haiyi Li, Jessica’s mom. “We are honored that she will appear on the cover of our favorite New Jersey magazine and we are proud of her first magazine cover photo shoot!”
The contest, sponsored by
Tenafly Pediatrics
, was open to kids from New Jersey ages 2-12. All parents entering who entered received a PDF cover with their child on the cover and 15 percent of contest proceeds supported
