As a separate event to the British Academy Film Awards, British Academy Television Awards, British Academy Television Craft Awards and the British Academy Games Awards is the British Academy Children's Awards which is kind of all on them rolled into one and some other stuff focusing on media for Children.
This year is the 20th time these awards have taken place and it took place on the 22nd November (slowpoke.jpg)

I'm just going to focus on the gaming side of things and there two gaming categories. The first was a public vote; Children's | BAFTA Kids' Vote - Game in 2015. Winner (in bold) and nominees were as follows:
Servbots Minions as they won the feature film vote this year) and previously won in 2014. Likewise we see many dynasties/brands in the nominations like Sylanders, LEGO, Just Dance and Fifa.
The other was a competitive vote; Children's | Game in 2015. Winner (in bold) and nominees (each is suppoed to followed by developer) were as follows:
There were 8 jurors behind this vote. Details can be found in the brochure*. Interesting how the list was fairly different to the public vote. This category goes back to 2013 and Minecraft has never won. Nintendo has featured heavily every time.
*-In case anyone wondered Development Team seems to be some sort of data importing error as the brochure states the developer and publisher.
There are also some pics showing the winners at the podium and in the press room with Dick & Dom.
Nintendo UK tweeted this pic of their trophy in question.
Finally, going by past years there might be some footage of the award announcement and the press room questions uploaded in the next few days.
