Can anyone help with a tooth fairy letter. My DD (5) had her first tooth pulled by the oral surgeon today, it was an extra front tooth and it needed to come out before it interfered with the bigger teeth getting ready to come down, but I can't find a good tooth fairly letter, can anyone help?

Thank, my 5 year old will appreciate it tomorrow.
 
Let me give you a bit of advice, if this is your first child and first lost tooth. You need to plant the expectation that the Tooth Fairy is absent-minded and often blown off course, because a child loses a lot of teeth and one night you're going to forget. Parents have so much trouble with this that there are even stories in magazines to back you up. I loved doing the Tooth Fairy thing, and this made it a lot more fun.

:laughing: I always have trouble with the tooth fairy remembering our house also, but a friend gave me a tip that seems to work with me as soon as you realize your child has lost a tooth go put a dollar or whatever the toothfairy leaves and put it right into your bra.:scared1: It does help you remember in the evening when I am getting ready for bed it is a good reminder.

I wish I could say it was our first, it's our third and unfortunately our second lost a tooth at the beginning of the week and my husband found a letter about her losing her tooth and the fact that she also lost the tooth, now our third daughter got her's pulled out today and we need to find a letter that suits this if we can. It's also her first tooth.
 
I am anxious to watch this thread - we have our first loose tooth here!
 
When DD lost her first tooth, the "Tooth Fairy" wrote a tiny little letter and left it under her pillow along with the dollar. It was about 1"x1 1/2", with teeny writing. There was even a red envelope, complete with stamp and address, made special for the letter- that was a real bear to put together!! DD still has her "Tooth Fairy letter" in her jewelry box and has shown it to friends who insist the TF isn't real.

We have also told DD that the TF gets called away on special missions frequently (dentures, accidents, all sorts of tooth emergencies) AND that she doesn't work on weekends. The TF has a real tough time remembering to come on the weekends around here...:rotfl:
 
No help with a letter. Good luck finding something.

I will share a story. My DS was confused when he lost one of his first teeth. The kids at school compared notes and found out that they received different amounts from the TF. I quickly explained that the TF has a certain amount to hand out on any given night. If there are lots of lost teeth, the TF has to divide the money between more people. So sometimes we got more money and other times less. (That also made it easier when some nights when DH and I didn't have the exact amount we'd agreed on.)

DS and DD bought it and shared the info with their friends at school. :rotfl: DS once lost a tooth at Disney and got a note from Tinkerbell. Bet you didn't know she serves at TF at Disney, did you? ;) That one was fun!
 
Our first DD13, then 5, lost her first tooth on her 5th b'day. Not a big deal but her b'day is New Years Eve! So, we are all dressed up, getting ready to leave for a big dinner (in her honor) and I'm washing her face, swept the washcloth across her mouth and out popped her tooth!

Blood everywhere, she's crying "Put it back in!", I'm crying because I thought I had ripped it out of her mouth. My DM and DIn-laws walk into the chaos and my DM starts crying because of the big event! I'm yelling for DH and he is nowhere to be found. He then walks into the bathroom and hands me a piece of paper. He was on the internet seeing if this was TOO EARLY for DD to loose a tooth?!

So, the evening progresses and everyone is impressed with the tooth! Oh yeah, this is the 1999/2000 millenium and DH planned a fireworks show for the occasion! DD already belives NYE is just for her b'day!

Fast forward to March, 2000 and our trip to WDW. At check-in at Coronado Springs, there is a package for Miss Katie. All the CM's were watching. They brought out a box, all wrapped in sparkling paper, (I had arranged this ahead of time). She unwrapped it on the counter and there was a card from Tink, explaining that her cousin, the Tooth Fairy, had told her about her first tooth! There were all kinds of goodies, but the big hit was the new toothbrush and toothpaste with Tinkerbell on it!

Also, DH (he is such a big kid!), goes outside and waves around the flashlight as the toothfairy! The deal is she can't come in unless she sees that our girls are asleep! If I could only get him to wear the tutu!

Have you ever not been able to find the tooth? This happened with DD6 this last time. She found it the next morning with her money! We told her the TF dropped it, maybe her pouch was too full?!
 
My daughter always wrote a letter to the tooth fairy because she wanted the tooth fairy to write back to her...which she did. One year she commented on Christmas Day how Santa writes just like the tooth fairy...she didnt catch on but thought that was so cool.;)
 
Our TF always left short, but personalized message like "Grant, Thanks for another shiny tooth! Love, the Tooth Fairy". The TF used a handwriting type font in the smallest size (I think 8) and it looked great. A little watered-down glue and glitter brushed over it and rolling it like a scroll made it extra special.
The TF prepared several different ones at the same time and sometimes was lucky enough to retrieve the used ones for another use. ;)
 
I have a funny story that for some odd reason I feel compelled to share with you all....:guilty: I have a much older brother and one day found this tiny little jeweled suitcase in my mother's photograph drawer, when I opened it up it was full of teeth. :idea: And then I got this great idea. So I kindly removed it from her drawer and took it. You guessed it I proceeded to claim the teeth were mine, one by one every here and there. And the TF brought me my "gifts". Then one day I got caught, I don't remember if my Mom became suspicious of how many teeth I had lost or if she was cleaning my room and found the little suitcase - needless to say I got in a little trouble- those were all my brothers teeth and the TF never came back to our house again!:rotfl2:

Brilliant idea!

I'm loving these ideas, and feeling VERY guilty b/c DS has lost 3 teeth (1 in a rotten accident at 6 months old, and 2 to the dentist) but he's never had a visit from the TF.

And it's funny b/c I so do NOT believe in doing the whole Easter Bunny or Santa Claus thing, but the Tooth Fairy is my little hypocritical thing I will enjoy welcoming to our house.

I think that when DS loses his first proper tooth, he'll get some bonus presents.:goodvibes
 
At our house, the tooth fairy leaves a gold dollar coin in place of a nice shiny tooth. My daughter has lost 5 teeth and refuses to spend her "special" gold dollars from the tooth fairy. Also, there is a trail of fairy dust that the tooth fairy leaves behind when she comes (a trail of white/iridescent glitter) that leads from the bedside to the window. The morning is always a great treat because she always looks for that trail of fairy dust before she will even move her pillow!

:rotfl: You were quite the entrepreneur, weren't you? Very funny!
 
Tooth fairy is not my strong suit!!! DS has always been desperate to believe and with such a fertile imagination I have been able to avert any disastrous effect on his psyche. :rotfl:
I'm the mom who had to pay $5 a tooth because early on I had no change and had forgotten until about four minutes before he woke up. :lmao: I'm the mom who drops the tooth into his own toybox and can't find it.:rotfl2: I'm the mom who completely forgets and fortunately have a great friend who wrote a letter from the tooth fairy (on TF letterhead, even) for DS including details from a great book we have called "Open Wide" (all about kids at a tooth school). She claimed the tooth fairy got tied up with so many deliveries and had a late start because she had to oversee some maintenance on the molar coaster!!! :laughing:
DS has always been such a sweetie, too. He was worried that the tooth pulled at the dentist wouldn't qualify, so he left the tooth fairy a note saying he sure hoped it would qualify. He also left her about five rice crispies in the top of a water bottle for her to have as a snack! So adorable! :love: I've kept all of the notes and even the water bottle lid and rice crispies as it fit perfectly in a neat little tooth holder.
 
The TF leaves a letter each time - I pre-write the letters so I have them ready - she leaves Disney Dollars, a $2, Webkinz cards, silly things.
Our tooth fairy also tells each child her name when he/she loses the second tooth. Each person has their own tooth fairy.

And did you know the tooth fairy has a daytime job? My girls decided that tooth fairies work the traffic lights turning the different colors. cute!

My letters were basic - just hello - a comment abou something recent that happened or that their teacher said something. Tinkerbell is the tooth fairies' cousin also.

I fold each not eup & put it in their big banks so years from now they have them. One of the girls wrote a note to the tooth fairy, that is in her bank too!
