“How will she get the tooth out without waking me up?  How much money will she leave?  Will she be able to find it?  It’s so small!”

There aren’t many rites of passage more magical than the first time a child leaves a tooth under his pillow for the Tooth Fairy!  Kids love this tradition (especially because it usually comes with a little cash!).

And today, we’re sharing a simple way for you to make the experience of losing a tooth even more magical for your child.  You can reassure your kiddo that their teeth won’t get lost with these printable Tooth Fairy envelopes!

The Tooth Fairy

The tooth fairy tradition is a popular custom in many parts of the world, especially in Western countries. According to this tradition, when a child loses a tooth, they place it under their pillow before going to bed, and the tooth fairy visits them during the night. The tooth fairy takes the tooth and leaves a small gift or money in its place.

The Tooth Fairy tradition is often seen as a way to celebrate a child’s milestone of losing a tooth. It is also a way to create a sense of wonder and excitement for children, and to help them cope with the discomfort and anxiety that can come with losing a tooth.

    Brushing twice a day – in the morning and evening and regular dental visits.

    We strive for no cavities at each dentist check-up. Although we all still have our tooth faults, it helps when we help remind each other to take care of our teeth!

    I set up success by brushing with them! My 6 year old twins love to brush with mommy! They find it fun to see mommy brush her teeth too! I buy fun floss shapes so they take interest in them!

    We have set our kids up for tooth success by educating them from a very young age on the importance of dental hygiene, as well as scheduling regular dental check-ups! We also brushed together when they were young keep them motivated & be sure they were brushing & flossing properly.

    Little things to help make brushing fun, like allowing my son to pick out his favorite toothbrush character/design every few months when we replace the brushes
