The Tooth Fairy is an endearing tradition that many parents carry on with their children when they lose their first tooth to commemorate the occasion. It seems innocent enough, and it doesn’t hurt anyone, right? It’s not like some fairy is actually breaking into the house, creeping into a kid’s bedroom and snatching their teeth while leaving behind some coin.
All joking aside, the Tooth Fairy is a fun way for parents to award little ones for being brave and surrendering those baby teeth. It’s a big deal and a momentous occasion. It’s no wonder parents everywhere want to celebrate with monetary rewards bestowed upon their children — even if sometimes it doesn't always go as planned. We've rounded up 15 of the most ideas for parents that are really looking to level up their Tooth Fairy game.
Fairy Door
Losing a tooth can be scary, especially the first time. This cute magical fairy door provides safe entry for fairies to transition in and out of this world to perform their Tooth Fairy and gift-bearing duties.
Forget Me Not
Forgot to leave the Tooth Fairy bounty last night? No problem. As any good parent should do, shift the onus to the child. They'll still get their reward, the room will get tidied and there's a bonus day to source that bounty.
Tooth Fairy Tokens
Another great solution for the Tooth Fairy when the mom brain is just too much. Parents will never have to run out at midnight for cash again and can rest easy knowing these tokens are always on hand.
Tooth Fairy Flat Pillow
This cute Tooth Fairy pillow is perfect for excited little ones who are afriad they'll misplace those precious lost teeth. It also keeps teeth securely and conveniently within reach of the "Tooth Fairy."
Tooth Fairy Do Not Disturb
This is the perfect Tooth Fairy solution for light sleepers. This sleek, neutral door placard not only makes it a breeze for parents to be able to trade the tooth for money, it is also small and lightweight enough to travel.
Larry Skadarry
This is another great tool for parents, just in case — forgetfulness happens. Larry Skadarry, the forgetful Tooth Fairy, will shoulder the blame and childhood will be saved another day.
Keepsake Tooth Bags
Who really knows what to do with those teeth those precious children lose? Throwing them in the garbage seems wrong, but then again, so does hoarding them like tokens for a serial killer. These adorable little personalized keepsake tooth bags will keep kids' teeth tidily put away without causing too much discomfort.
Tooth Fairy Monster
Who says monsters are all scary? These adorable and lovable tooth fairy monsters are perfect companions for children losing teeth, complete with a front pocket and personalized poem using the child's name and initial.
Tooth Fairy House
This is a cute take on the Tooth Fairy pillow that merges the pillow with those adorable fairy doors/houses. Simply place the tooth in the pocket and let the fairy magic do the rest.
Hanging Tooth Fairy Pillow
This could be the most brilliant idea ever, a hanging tooth fairy pillow. Why so amazing? Put the tooth in the pillow, hang it on the outside of the bedroom door, and now tooth recon and money dispensation can take place with little to no chance of being interrupted. It's by far the safest way to execute Tooth Fairy duties and super cute.
Tooth Fairy Trinket Box
If a child is too afraid or grossed out to put their tooth under their pillow, it's problem with this Tooth Fairy trinket box. Simply place the tooth in the trinket box and leave the box for pick-up. Easy peasy.
Beware of Kids Keeping Receipts
It's all fun and games until kids start yanking teeth out of their heads trying to save up for the PS5. Admittedly, leaving a receipt for the Tooth Fairy to let her know what the going rate is, is pretty brilliant.
Tooth Fairy Coin Holder
This enamel tooth is great for keeping Tooth Fairy expenses and expectations in check. It limits the payout to a single coin. That's a win for parents everywhere.
Crochet Tooth Fairy Pillow
This is not the typical Tooth Fairy pillow. This sweet, crocheted pillow is soft, cuddly and cute, and any little kid will love it.
La Petite Souris & Ratoncito Pérez
In France, Spain, and other Spanish-speaking countries, there is no Tooth Fairy but instead a Tooth Mouse who comes and takes the tooth and exchanges it for goodies or money. Not sure which a child would find more disturbing — a fairy or a little mouse fairy? Either way, this set is super cute.
