The Tooth Fairy is a beloved figure in many households, bringing a sprinkle of magic to the milestone of losing baby teeth. At My Forever Tooth Fairy, we believe that every child is magical, just the way they are, and our mission is to make each Tooth Fairy visit an enchanting and empowering experience. Here’s how to prepare your child for their first Tooth Fairy visit and create a delightful routine that turns this childhood tradition into a cherished memory.
Preparing Your Child for Their First Tooth Fairy Visit
The anticipation of the first visit from the Tooth Fairy can be both exciting and a little daunting for young children. Children lose their first baby tooth anywhere from the age of 4-6 (approximately). When that first wiggly tooth appears, the excitement levels will no doubt be off the charts. Here are some tips to help prepare them for this magical experience:
1. A Message from your Forever Tooth Fairy - 'The Magic is You'
Share the enchanting theme of the Forever Tooth Fairies with your child. Explain how with each lost tooth they bestow a magical superpower on their very own Forever Tooth Fairy, powers like love, kindness, confidence etc. making them the hero of their own magical journey.
2. Read The Tale of the Forever Tooth Fairies Together
Our story is designed to bring the magic of the Tooth Fairy tradition to life in the most enchanting, meaningful way. Our beautifully illustrated storybook transports children to Avalon, home of the Forever Tooth Fairies. Our wonderful characters include both a boy and girl fairy along with their enchanting animal friends. Join them as they tell the story of how each Forever Tooth Fairy gets 'magicated'. "Magicated" is one of our special fairy words, and in our gift set, we've included a little fairy dictionary so you can discover the meaning behind all of these new and wonderful fairy sayings and words.
The storybook also includes magical extras like a Teeth Brushing Song, a Frequently Asked Fairy Questions section, and a Magic Tooth Tracker so your child can record each lost tooth.
3. Be Ready for the Questions!
As we know, children's curiosity knows no bounds, so no doubt they will have lots of wonderful questions. In our storybook, we include a "Frequently Asked Fairy Questions" section that should cover any queries your little loved one might have. If it doesn't, drop us a line at Forever Tooth Fairy HQ, and we'll send you back a response in a pop, fizz, whizz, minute– magicmail@myforevertoothfairy.com.
4. The Magic of Patience
The excitement of losing that first tooth is palpable, and we know children just can't wait for it to fall out. It's helpful to encourage children to let their tooth fall out in its own time. As the Forever Tooth Fairies tell us, it's important that children don't try to force their tooth to come out as the magic may not be fully absorbed into their tooth at that stage. So, for now just hold out a little longer and remember that all good things come to those who wait.
The Tooth Fairy Visit Routine
Establishing a routine for the Tooth Fairy’s visit can make the experience even more magical and memorable.
Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Celebrate the Lost Tooth:
When your child loses their first tooth, celebrate the moment. Explain to them that their Forever Tooth Fairy will be arriving that night to collect their tooth and that right now, in their home of Avalon, they are bursting with excitement and cannot wait to take their magical flight to collect their magical tooth.
2. Capture the Moment:
Each lost tooth is a mini magical milestone. Why not capture the moment with a picture? At the end of your child's Tooth Fairy journey, when you look back on all the pictures for each lost tooth, you'll see a timeline of your little one growing up right before your eyes. With our Forever Tooth Fairy Frame, you can easily capture these moments. Your little one can hold up their tooth and write the number of the tooth they've just lost on the frame with a wipeable marker. Snap! You're done!
Think of it like a height chart for your teeth. If you would like us to send you out a Forever Tooth Fairy Frame drop us a line at magicmail@myforevertoothfairy.com. There will just be a small nominal postage fee to get this delivered to you.
3. Prepare the Tooth for Avalon:
In your Forever Tooth Fairy gift set you'll find your little tooth tote. Give your lost tooth a little clean and pop it into the tote and under your pillow or on your bedside locker.
4. Gift for Your Forever Tooth Fairy:
The best gift you could give your Forever Tooth Fairy is a little note to say hello, or if you have some time they really love to receive pictures and drawings. In the image below, you can see that our Forever Tooth Fairy, Fayla, keeps all the drawings and notes that her child leaves for her. They are all proudly displayed in her fairy cottage.
5. Read The Tale of the Forever Tooth Fairies:
With that precious tooth securely tucked away in our tooth tote and any notes or drawings left out for your Forever Tooth Fairy, it's now time to snuggle up and read The Tale of the Forever Tooth Fairies. With each lost tooth our storybook will renew the magic of the Tooth Fairy tradition for your little one, reminding them how magical and wonderful they are. They'll drift off to sleep dreaming about the enchanting world of Avalon and the magic they hold within themselves.
6. Unlock the Magic:
Grown-ups (aka Guardians of Magic) at the ready! As you wait for your little one to nod off, try not to fall asleep yourself. We've all been there, so it's totally understandable. Just in case, you might want to set an alarm as a safeguard.
Leaving that all-important note, gift, or money is the key to keeping this magical tradition alive for your child, so make sure you are prepped in advance. Keep a stash of coins set aside and some special note paper and glitter pens to add some extra sparkle. Shortly, we'll be introducing Forever Tooth Fairy notes and charms to the range, along with a beautiful box to store all those lost baby teeth. Subscribe for updates below, and we'll let you know as soon as these products are in stock. Until then, preparation is key, as you just never know when that wiggly tooth will pop out.
7. Magical Mornings:
The magical moment when your child discovers the Tooth Fairy has visited is truly wonderful. I still remember the first time my son rushed in with sheer excitement because the Tooth Fairy had collected his tooth. It's a true reflection of the wonder, imagination, and beauty of children, making it a family tradition to relish. We hope each lost tooth brings with it lots of magical moments for your family. Make sure to take the time to savour them.
