In folklore, who leaves a small payment when children place their baby teeth underneath their pillow?

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.

In French we call her the "petite souris" which means "little mouse".

swish, We are talking about The Tooth Fairy, an innocent fantasy figure, please keep it idyllic, just for once!

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!

I swore I saw the tooth fairy standing in my room when I was little 🧚🏽‍♂️

Easy any one will know 🤣

Tooth fairy give you coins.

Derek Thompson is a minor league ice hockey player, nicknamed "Tooth Fairy" for his habit of shoving opposing players so hard, their teeth come out. One night, Derek steals a dollar from his girlfriend Carly's six-year-old daughter Tess that had been left for her lost tooth, telling her that the tooth fairy doesn't exist in the process. He receives a magical Summons under his pillow, which causes him to grow wings and transports him to the realm of tooth fairies. He meets his caseworker, Tracy, and the head fairy, Lily, both of whom he develops an adversarial relationship with. Lily tells Derek that he is a pessimistic due to his unsympathetic dealings with children like Tess, and sentences him to serve two weeks as a tooth fairy. Later, he meets Jerry, who gives him his tooth fairy supplies, which include "Shrinking Paste," "Invisible Spray," "dog peppermints", "Amnesia Dust", "cat away" and a magic wand that will only work if he believes.
