When my daughter lost her first tooth I told her that the dollar that she found under her pillow was from the Tooth Fairy and that she'd get a dollor for every tooth. She then stuck her finger in her mouth and counted her remaining teeth and said, "Mommy, I can get 25 dollars if I lose all of my teeth"!!

When I was little, I put my lost tooth in a tiny box I made and received not only money, but a beautiful handwritten note from the Tooth Fairy. I treasured it for years and when I realised who had actually written it (Mum), I loved it all the more. 🧚‍♀️🦷❤️

My daughter was never good at cleaning her teeth. Her friends had received several visits from the tooth fairy before my daughter lost her first tooth. She was disappointed when she woke to find her tooth still under her pillow, along with this note from the tooth fairy: 'Sorry, but I cannot use this tooth as it hasn't been cleaned properly'. I can only use teeth that have been cleaned twice every day'. It worked!

In Spain we have Ratoncito Pérez. As kids we all long for his visit and the coins he leaves behind under the pillow lol.

whenever I lost a tooth as a kid the "tooth fairy" would always come and bring a couple bucks and a handwritten note saying what she did with it. I remember I had a little table and chair and tiny toy cup so I filled the cup with some water and put a piece of cookie on the tiny table. when I woke up the cookie was gone (with only a few crumbs) and the water was all drunk. I quickly looked under my pillow with some money and a note that said somthing like "thank u for the yummy cookie and water, I was absolutely parched. now I can fly back to the palace." I wish I had the notes now but I lost them when I was younger.

travelingtomato, Yes, it did work. She now cleans her teeth with toothpaste every morning and evening. She has lost a couple more teeth since I posted my original comment and she has received a reward from the tooth fairy for each one.

Goshiamar, you deprive them of imagination if you kill off the tooth fairy or Santa Claus. Personally I believe that this world is hard enough without spooling it for them. We are adults too long. Let me ask one question, what do remember best, the happy mystery of childhood, or the adults who insisted you aught to know NOW the reality of this world. I know which I remember with the happiest feelings!

Every time I lose a tooth, I write the Tooth Fairy a little note and sometimes give her a little treasure. In the morning, I would get a note back telling me how sweet and kind I was. I treasure these notes still, even though now I know it's my parents who wrote them. I have like, 2 teeth left and I will truly miss waking up to find joy in the little things

Both of my nephews received $100 for their first tooth and then they received $20 for each one after. If the tooth fairy had of been that good to me and my brother, I don't know what we would have done.

Player #3532789, a little girl came home from school and told her mother that the other kids had told her that her mother was actually the tooth fairy. Not wanting to out and out lie, the mother admitted that this was true. The little girl started crying and as her mother tried to console her, the little girl cried out, " I just can't believe you leave me Home Alone every night to go collect teeth!"

Tooth Wizard sounds cooler. And if it was the Tooth Gnome I'd have been terrified as a kid LOL. Hate those things

Perfumella, when I was little my first tooth broke and I was so surprised, nobody saw it, but I just threw it in the dustbin, then my mom saw it and then she said that kid look, you have to put it under your pillow so then the tooth fairy will give you dollars

My parents made me tape it to the bathroom counter, since I lost a tooth once or twice. Lol We all have our traditions, and the tooth fairy looked a lot like my Dad.
