Losing Baby Teeth

What to Do When a Tooth Falls Out

Getting loose teeth is really exciting. Not only do kids get to poke and prod the tooth their tongues, but they also have a visit from the Tooth Fairy to look forward to! Why not make her life easy and make a tooth basket to hold her new treasure?

One day your children will run in from playing outside or they'll greet you at the bus stop with gap-toothed grin. They'll be proud — and with good reason. In their hand will be a tiny tooth wrapped in a tissue. The big teeth are coming!

Whatever you do, keep it safe! Losing a tooth before the Tooth Fairy comes can be a little stressful — she won't be the only one who's disappointed. Put it straight into the tooth basket for safekeeping.

If you'd like to make the Tooth Fairy visit extra-special, why not use these notes or write one yourself (in your most magical handwriting, of course) and slip it under the pillow?

In the morning the Tooth Fairy will have left her reward and sometimes she leaves a note, too — we've created a few of these for you to download.

These are memories that make childhood special and that you'll hold close to your heart for many years to come.
