The Mom's Choice Awards is an international program that recognizes authors and others for their efforts in creating quality, family-friendly media, products, and services. Parents, educators, and librarians look for the Mom's Choice Awards Honoring Excellence seal of approval when selecting books for children.

MCA judges are bound by a strict code of ethics which ensures expert and objective analysis. A sampling of panel members includes Dr. Twila C. Liggett, ten-time Emmy-winner, professor and founder of PBS's Reading Rainbow and Julie Aigner-Clark, creator of Baby Einstein. To be considered for an award, Empowerment Productions submitted five identical samples of EggMania. Entries were matched to judges in the MCA database. Judges performed a thorough analysis and submitted a detailed assessment. Results were compiled and submitted to the MCA Executive Committee for final approval.
