2. Nature of the Contest: This is a skill-based competition. It is not a lottery, prize draw, or game of chance. Winners are selected solely based on the creativity, emotion, and quality of the submitted photo, evaluated by a Jury.
3. Duration: The contest is continuous and operates in monthly cycles, starting from 1 February 2026, until further notice. Entries are accepted throughout the entire calendar month. Results are announced by the 7th day of the following month.
4. Termination: The Promoter reserves the right to terminate the contest at any time by providing 30 days' notice on the Instagram profile and website. All entries submitted prior to the termination date will be evaluated.
2. Product Requirement: To enter, you must own a Wild Folks product (e.g., cocoon, swing), which must be visible in the submitted photo.
3. Entry Limit: One person may submit one entry per month. You are welcome to participate again in subsequent months with a different photo.
STEP 1: TAKE A PHOTO
Take an aesthetic photo of a child (or children) using a Wild Folks product. We are looking for emotions, joy, and that special "wild" atmosphere. Photos may show faces (smiles are welcome!), but if you prefer to maintain anonymity, shots from behind or detailed close-ups are equally wonderful.
STEP 2: SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY (Choose one method)
OPTION A (Instagram): Post the photo on your public profile. In the caption, add the hashtag #FirstSwing and tag @wildandfolks.
OPTION B (E-mail): Send the photo to hello@wildfolks.eu with the subject line "FirstSwing Contest". Please include your Instagram handle in the email (if you have one).
STEP 3: CLAIM YOUR WELCOME GIFT
After we verify your entry (usually within 48h), you will receive a message from us with a welcome gift!
2. Evaluation Criteria (Scale 0-30 points):
CREATIVITY (0-10) — Composition, lighting, and the idea behind the shot.
EMOTIONS (0-10) — Does the photo capture the pure joy of childhood?
QUALITY (0-10) — Overall aesthetics and visual appeal ("Wild Aesthetics").
3. The Jury's decision is final and binding.
Every participant who submits a valid entry receives:
1. A feature in the "Wild Family" gallery on our website (building our community!).
2. A surprise gift included with the next order.
MAIN PRIZE (1 WINNER PER MONTH):
The author of the best photo of the month receives:

The voucher is valid for 12 months and can be used on all products, including sale items.
The estimated maximum value of the prize package is approx. £115 / €135 gross.
2. Contact: We will contact the Winner via Instagram DM or email. You have 14 days to confirm acceptance.
3. Delivery: The Voucher (digital code) will be sent electronically within 7 days of confirmation. Fast and eco-friendly!

3. Licence: You grant Wild Folks a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to repost and feature your photo on our channels (Instagram, Facebook, website, newsletter) for contest-related and community-building purposes.
