Ready, set, crawl! Babies took to the mat for last year's crawling contest.

So the big question that must be asked at this year's New Baby & Kids Expo is: Will that oh-so-cute — and even exciting — Baby Crawling Contest be back for another round? Yes, indeed!

The littlest ones will race at 1 p.m each day this weekend at the fourth annual expo, which also features more than 150 booths of all the stuff parents of the younger set might want — you know, things like fashions, toys, furniture, party planning, the works.

Other attractions include:

  • A fashion show by Hawaiian Moon, featuring styles for the whole family, including the dog, at 11 a.m. today on the main stage.

  • Tyrone, from Nickelodeon's "Backyardigans" (oh, OK, someone dressed just like him), makes his Hawai'i debut at 10 a.m., noon and 2 and 4 p.m. each day.

  • Meet-and-greets with Disney's first couple, Mickey and Minnie, at noon each day, main stage.

  • Curious George and his pal The Man in the Yellow Hat, at 11 a.m. and 1 and 3 p.m. each day at the expo's entrance.

  • A children's activity area and a play area for infants and toddlers, continuously during the expo.

    Other displays and activities abound. See all the details at www.newbabyandkids.com.
