Sophia is almost 4 and likes to hang with the older crowd. She prefers the cool 5 and 6 year olds to kids her own age and thus is constantly wondering when she will lose her first tooth and meet the amazing tooth fairy. She knows exactly what to look for and daily feels her teeth to see if any are wiggly. This girl is ready to say goodbye to those babies and get some big girl toofers and more importantly, the tooth fairy prize.
She made a little video explaining the process and the aforementioned prize. Show this to your kids if they are wondering how this exciting process works. The best part? Our tooth fairy brings pennies! I just love it – the tooth fairy is on a budget too!
Yes, I know that she will realize a penny does not buy much and at some point will ask for the big money or a Wii or something our tooth fairy cannot afford. I’m thinking of telling her that our tooth fairy has fallen on hard times and see how she takes the news.

Lol lucky you if she’s excited to get a penny – milk that for all it’s worth! The video is definitely one to keep around for a while, maybe to show her when she’s 16 and asking for spending money… Great post!

I want Sophia’s fairy! The one who comes here gives dollars. But only 1 dollar at a time, thankfully.
Also, she is adorable! Perhaps we need a whole line of “How It Works with Sophia”?

so cute…love the vlog…and pennies. Keep her innocent! Mine is looking for dollars and I mean multiples
That’s wonderful that she loves her pennies–Miss D. doesn’t care about the money, but she does gripe that half the time, the tooth fairy “forgets” and has to come a day late…oops.

I wish our tooth fairy brought pennies. The tooth fairy here brought my son $5 for both of his teeth he’s lost so far. At this rate, our tooth fairy is going to go broke.

This one’s so cute, it slays me. We were recently wondering if the tooth fairy travels. You see, we’re on vacation and that wiggly tooth that T2 has is getting on near ready to come out. Wonder what Sophia’s wisdom is about that. hahahaha

Given Sophia’s extensive knowledge on fairies I am sure she can tell you how they travel and what kinds of little boys and girls get visited by fairies and even who can see fairies. Perhaps she should do a whole series on fairy goings on. I can tell you, though, that she is going to be a tooth yanker as soon as one wiggles. We had the paci fairy come for her pacifier when she was 18 months old and she swears she met her and that it has just been way to loong since she has seen a fairy.
