We are also trying to decide what the tooth fairy does with all the teeth.....so far, we think she makes necklaces or chairs (?) out of them

I forgot and my son had his tooth still under the pillow the next morning (what a bad mummy
)
I made some lame excuse that she had been in a rush and must have left it elsewhere in the house - this gave me some time to grab some change (going rate in ours $2) and shove in a plastic bag and hide in his sock drawer with a note stating sorry was in a rush xx![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
It worked ...

Going rate here was $2. That's what our lad got for his first one that he swallowed. A few nights later a second one came out with the help of some thread and the bad door handle, Daddy was playing fairy that night and gave $10
No wonder our son talks about and is constantly shaking his teeth to see if any more are on the way out!
I'll be telling him that there's a recession in tooth fairy land and it's back to $2 a pop!

I was thinking:
$5
Letter from tooth fairy
New toothbrush & toothpaste
Copy of The Tooth Book by Dr Suess
After that, I'll probably give him $2 per tooth....

$1 per tooth in my household..although my kids are too big for the tooth failry now (sbiff, sniff)
May I suggest asking your DS to leave it in a special place rather than under the pillow ? It makes it so much easier to find the Bl**dy thing ...especially on a Friday night after a couple of bevvies

Where I live - the two big front teeth are worth double than whatever you give for all other little teeth.

she puts them in the mouths of new babies ready to be born - that's what my little girl was told - not by me but by her school teacher.

There are a lot of nice coins that you could give. Presidential $1, state quarters, etc. If you want to go all out a 2008 American Eagle would be a nice one off since it's dated and a nice item in general. However they are $26 for the silver uncirculated and $32 for the silver proof.
