9 Budget Friendly Tooth Fairy Gifts
So the time has finally come that your (not so little) kiddo is about to lose their first tooth! This moment is up there with one of the most memorable milestones for both you and your child, so why not create a magical experience to mark this rite of passage?
While finding money under your pillow is super exciting, receiving a unique gift from the Tooth Fairy can make this moment much more magical! How exciting would it be to wake up to an enchanted Fairy Coin, a letter from the Tooth Fairy herself or even a bottle of fairy dust? These extra special gifts can make the experience even more memorable for your little one.
Preparing for the Tooth Fairy
So many of us are guilty of not preparing for such events in advance - we all do it! It’s almost a shocking surprise when the tooth that has been loose for weeks finally pops out! So avoid the Tooth Fairy scramble by planning ahead of time.
My first piece of advice would be to introduce a Fairy Door prior to the Tooth Fairy’s arrival. It’s the perfect way to explain how to the Tooth Fairy enters into the home. These fairy doors come in many different styles that are all available online, such as the ones shown below. A fairy door bonus, simply leave the tooth beside the door and the Tooth Fairy can quickly grab it without the hassle of trying to get under your kids pillow – but more on that in an upcoming post.
