Tooth fairy

My 5yr old had his two front teeth pulled today. He was such a trooper. I swear he never ceases to amaze me. How much money do you think the tooth fairy should give? It's his first lost teeth and they were pulled do I feel like he deserves a little extra for that.

Re: Tooth fairy

Our tooth fairy is cheap and gives $2 per tooth...but they are sprayed with glitter paint so the kids think they are more valuable!

Re: Tooth fairy

Boy I must be cheap! I did 1$ per tooth! Just consider what your budget for all those teeth will be after you go through all of them.

When DD got them pulled I may have done $2. I could not imagine giving $20! Chat Icon

Tooth fairy

I would give $20 because it's his first teeth to come out, there were two of them, and he had to have them pulled.

Our kids get $5 for their first tooth that falls out. But in your case, I would do more.

For DD's first tooth we gave her $14 (for some reason she thinks $14 is a TON of money). The rest she got a dollar and we always do a note from the tooth fairy thanking her for the tooth.

Re: Tooth fairy

I would do $20 since he got them pulled, and it's his first teeth. We did $10 for first tooth and $1 for each tooth after, and I spray them with glitter ((or use my sparkle nail polish when I forget where I put the spray lol).

Re: Tooth fairy

$20 for the first tooth and $2 for all other teeth. One of the two dollars is a silver dollar. The other one is paper, so we can show both spending and saving.

Re: Tooth fairy

We did $10 for the first tooth/teeth-
one had them pulled, the other lost 1. But bc the $10 for 2 were first we couldn't give anything else. My kids remember everything.
Every tooth after that is $1 or $2. Depending what I have in my wallet at the time.

Or how about Farrah from Teen Mom giving her DD $600 for a tooth? lol

To the OP I think $5 is good.

We did $10 for the first tooth - that was what I had in my wallet at the time and DH was at work. I could've done a dollar - he didn't look closely and told my family that the tooth fairy gave him a dollar...

I informed DS not to expect that for each tooth.

Tooth fairy

AJ had all 4 bottom teeth pulled out. Had to be put under. They tried once and failed (she was awake) so we had to go back a different day and put her out. She had Shark's Teeth (the new teeth grew in before the baby teeth fell out).

She got $5, ice cream and a movie

She gets $1 a tooth, in general


26 teeth I believe. man.. Tooth fairy has gotten rich lately. Friends tell me they give their kid more. I figure she doesn't care. She was more interested in the pouch we made and finding the money the next morning

Re: Tooth fairy

I would do $5 a tooth plus a small toy in this situation . I would include a note from the tooth fairy explaining the toy is just for this one time since he was such a good boy at the dentist.
