    National Dental Health for Kids month

    Anyone have any good ideas or links? All I'm finding is coloring pages and toilet paper roll dolls. Any suggestions?

    Colgate has some awesome info for kids, parents and educators http://www.colgate.com/app/BrightSmi.../Teachers.cvsp

    I signed up with them years ago and have received atleast 100 child size toothbrushes with child size toothpastes and random coloring books over the years

      -Mine all get new toothbrushes.
      -We practice brushing our (stuffed) alligator's teeth.
      -Crocodile Dentist game.
      -Get some little toothbrushes from the Dollar Store & let them paint with them.
      -Read Dr. Seuss's The Tooth Book.
      -Floss collage.
      -Visit a dentist office.
      -Depending on the age of your kids, get some of the kids mouthwash that highlights the areas that need to be brushed. Then let them brush their teeth (I get parental permission for this one).
      -Show pictures and talk about different kinds of animal teeth (walrus, elephant, crocodile, rabbit, dog, etc.). Then I take a picture of each kid showing their biggest smile.
