Tooth Fairy Certificate (Help me ASAP Please!)

[Malibustyle23]

My son finally lost his first tooth ever today. I would like to make it even more special and add a letter or certificate under the pillow tonight honoring the occasion. I found a free letter online that would work but would rather something that talks more about it being the FIRST tooth lost. I found a site that does have one just like that but they charge $17 to access it ! So does anyone know of a great online certificate I can print out or is anyone good at making one that would be willing to for me ? Ive just realized I am incapable.

The one that Id rather not buy was worded like this

You Lost Your First Tooth!

In honor of
(insert name)
losing his/her first tooth, I present this certificate to commemorate the occasion
Your baby tooth will be added to my Tooth Castle, and all the fairies Thank You.
Date: (insert date)
Signed: The Tooth Fairy

If anyone can help me I would be very grateful especially if its in time for me to get some zzzzzzzzzzzs!!!!

Cute idea! My daughter just lost her first tooth, and I wrote a letter from the tooth fairy, complete with a little tooth drawing. It just talked about how excited she must be to have lost her 1st tooth etc, and since this was such a special occasion, "she" was going to leave this tooth behind so Mommy could keep it in a special place, but she'd be back for the others. I put it in a little ziploc bag with the note, and of course, $5 for the tooth!

That way, DD got to keep the tooth with the little note and didn't miss out on the $ for the tooth.

Maybe someone will be able to help you w/ the certificate.

I finally figured out how to do it on my own. Its not a 100% but I'm sure my 6 yr old won't notice. I would love to keep his but since daddy was watching him today when he lost his tooth daddy did not notice. I came home from work and the first thing I noticed was his missing tooth. Neither of them even realized it was gone. We think he swallowed it while eating luch. He complained to DH that he didn't wanna finish his tuna sub because it had something crunchy in it. DH told him it was fine to eat it and now his tooth is missing!

I comletely forgot I have glitter glue pens! Thank you for that reminder. I really wish I had some regular glitter to sprinkle all over.

What is your going rate? I see HLauburn is paying $5, is that that going rate these days?

I think it's whatever you want to give! $5 is her weekly "allowance", and since it was her first tooth, I thought it was a good amount. Subsequent teeth maybe be a little less, maybe $2-3?

At our house the tooth fairy give a "gold" dollar (a Sacajawea dollar), at least one dollar bill and all the change that the tooth fairy has in her purse that day! It usually ends up being around $3.50-$4.00 or so.

Unfortunatly my daughter's best friend's tooth fairy gives $20 per tooth. That was kinda confusing for my daughter when her friend got so much more (sometimes gifts too- like a DVD), so I told her that there was more than one tooth fairy and she must have had one on a different route.

 

[Malibustyle23]

Wow $20? I wish I lived at that house growing up! My Dh's nephews get large gifts for Easter including a playhouse before. Luckily so far my Ds has not compared the two.

I think Im going with $5 to celebrate the first one and then probably a dollar for each subsequent one. We are going to the mall and TRU tomorrow so I'm sure I'll be filling in the needed difference anyways.

my DD5 has lost 6 teeth this yr (since she turned 5 in October).

In the last 2 weeks, acually less than 2 weeks, she's lost both her top front and one of the bottom sides, plus her 4 molars came in.

I've been teaching her the All I want For Christmas is my two front teeth song.

She looks so cute wth that toothless grin now.

Her fairy gives her a dollar. She told her neighbor's boy when she lsot the 2nd tooth last week (3rd was 2 days ago) about her dollar each. He got upset as he only got $.25 each.

She left a note on that one, and this last one (upper) she left a pen and paper so the fqairy could leave a note...

I"m sure your 6 year old won't notice, either. How am I sure? Because my 6 year old just lost his first* tooth, and for a different reason I made a certificate, and he didn't notice that it was my writing, or anything like that.

For the tooth he got 2 gold dollars.

*It wasn't the first tooth gone from his mouth. He lost a brand new tooth at 6 months thanks to a table vs tired-boy-in-highchair incident. Then he had 2 teeth pulled at 2 years old (they came in yellow, turned brown, then started to disintegrate, either due to the trauma of hitting that table at 6 months OR his father's father's family's horrid teeth). Since he was so little for those, we didn't do anything fairy'ish. But this time he did get recognition, and the certificate told him that the tooth fairy had authorized us to get him a Lego set.

If I had it to do over, I would have tried harder to get a Lego set to just BE there, but it just didn't work out with DH's work schedule.

Anyway, he didn't notice anything weird about it at all! I pinned it up above the bed (we have a family bed, and I put it above where he sleeps), and he noticed it as he sat up and yawned a bit. Then he remembered his little tooth fairy pillow that we made, and looked in there to find the gold dollars.


I feel so bad for you guys that DS swallowed his tooth! That's what we thought happened after the 6 month old accident, but I later found it...it was stuck on someone's clothing and dropped into the carpet when we got home (the accident happened at a restaurant!). It was a bad feeling, to have lost that tooth. And later, the jar that held the three teeth (accident and extractions) was knocked over, and I actually DID lose 2 of those teeth! Ugh!

But we were on loose-tooth-watch for over a month with this one...in the past 6 months he's gotten two of the adult molars in, and he had 2 obviously loose teeth, and we check his mouth every 5 minutes it seems, LOL.

On the other hand, teeth are pretty creepy when they are outside of a mouth and now you don't have the huge pressure to keep them all, because you can't keep the first!

We give $5 for the first tooth or something special but similar to commemorate the day (DD lost hers at Disneyland so she got a $5 disney dollar), DS has always admired an old silver dollar my dad gave me so he got one of his own.

Other teeth after that are $1. If they have a filling in the tooth the kid has to PAY the toothfairy $1 for wasting her time coming to pick it up and not taking care of it.

I have 4 kids and they are VERY diligent about brushing their teeth since the oldest DD lost her filled tooth and had to do chores before the tooth fairy came to pay the debt!

I always wonder why my kids never protest based on their friends not having to pay but as long as it works...

Also, the tooth fairy in our house is LAZY. You have to put your tooth in a ziploc or other easily recognizable/reachable container and preferably tape it to the wall above your bed. She really doesn't like to search under pillows for it and has been known to not leave money if the tooth isn't easy to find...although she will return each night until she does.

Also, there is a super cute story called "The Real Tooth Fairy" that is a great cover story should you get caught (who knew all this business was so much work!) It basically says the tooth fairy takes on the form of someone you love before coming into the room so she doesn't frighten you..DUH! THAT's why the toothfairy looked like mom last night!

When my ds lost his first tooth the going rate at school was $20.00 and he got a webkinz. Now he just gets $1 or $2.00 per tooth. When I lost my teeth I got Half dollar coin. The tooth fairy did not give me $20.00, my mom would have fainted. but times have changed.

 

[pixiewings71]

For first teeth our girls got $20, each subsequent tooth has been a lot less. usually a gold dollar and then some money. Once DD10 (she was 8 or 9 at the time I think) left a note for the TF to say hi to Tink for her so she got a little note back from the TF and Tink. That was fun. Last year she got a note from Santa thanking her and her sister for the cookies and milk, DD22 wrote that and DD10 brought me the note earlier this year and said "Santa's writing looks sort of like Cami's" LOL Ummmmmmm They grow up too fast, these kids.

AT my house, I went to the ultimate toothfairy (not sure if we are supposed to do links, but a google search should get you there.) when my daughter lost her first tooth. She got a crystal bracelet, with holder, a letter from the toothfairy, and a chart to fill in as subsequent teeth fall out. Now when she loses a tooth, the toothfairy turns it into a pearl charm to hang from her bracelet! It was $60 up front, but I never have to worry anymore about not having cash or change when it happens. She tells everyone the story of what her toothfairy does to her teeth! I'll be sad when she stops beleiveing, btu she will always have a fancy braclet to commemorate her youthful belief.

Here is a cute one:

this one is very basic but cute:
http://www.lucylearns.com/support-files/free-tooth-fairy-certificate-1.pdf

there were some really cute ones but you have to join the mom's club to get them. But they had things like tooth charts, brushing charts, etc... One chart showed all the teeth and their names (canine-cuspid) bi-cuspid etc... I would join if I had a child the right age.
I still have the little tooth pillow I made for my son's when they lost their teeth. I cut out white fabric in the shape of a wisdom tooth (two roots) and sewed a small pillow on the front to put the tooth then the quarter. Yes, quarter.....
My boys are 33, 31, and 27 and I am planning on giving my oldest the pillow when my grandson loses his first tooth. I know he can fold up the $5 bill and put it in the pillow. lol
