After a month of watching Declan play with his first wiggly tooth flicking it back and forward with his tongue over and over again it has finally fallen out! The tooth fairy is making her maiden voyage to our home tonight and the excitement from this boy is incredible.

This 5 year old (almost 6 as he keeps telling me) has had the biggest smile on his face all day. A big gappy smile. The enthusiasm coming from this kid is great; he put the tooth in a little tin and put it under his pillow, made his bed and cleaned his room so it was spotless. He said it was so the tooth fairy didn’t get hurt finding his tooth. Smart thinking kiddo 😉

Times have changed so much since the tooth fairy stopped visiting me and the $1-$2 I used to receive seems to have taken on inflated rates. This has gotten me thinking as to how much the fairy should pay for each tooth. I am thinking $2 for small teeth & $3 for molars (which seems to be way under the retail price).

I would love for you to leave me a comment below as I’d really like to hear how much your fairy pays per tooth? Also what do you do with the teeth once they have been collected ~ keep them or discard?
