Lost tooth - Real Mum story on MoM

11 Comments

My darling little princess lost her first tooth the other day, so I had to explain about the tooth fairy and putting your tooth in a glass of water. When I was little the tooth fairy left us 20 cents.But today it costs a lot more for their first tooth. I wont say what she got but lets just say she went shopping and bought a couple of good things to take swimming and was over the moon. I just hope she doesn’t go ripping her teeth out for the money and waits for them to fall out naturally one at a time

my kids still only get a gold coin – maybe our tooth fairy is a scrooge! or just old-fashioned

The tooth fairy got a little tipsy the night my son lost his first tooth and paid waay too much. A very dangerous precendent!

I remember my parents leaving me 20 or 50 cents for a tooth, these days it is double $ figures, I think that is a bit much.

Thanks for sharing your story. I have a keep all the baby teeth and have them hidden away, where they can’t be found. The tooth fairy didn’t mind.

I remember being content with .50, but now days it has double at the least. My girl got $1 for her front teeth, but Im trying to squeeze in the idea that the other teeth or ,50 deals haha My fingers are crossed she buys it Im keeping the front teeth but not the others. Im not sure about what I do with them though.

Oh were you tempted to keep it? I have a secret stash of my daughters teeth that were ‘rescued’ from the tooth fairy!
