It’s not always easy to
get your kids to brush their teeth. Some
kids even put up a fight! Here are a few
tips and tricks that will help get your kids to enjoy brushing their teeth.
Tips and Tricks:
- Flavored Toothpaste – Pick a flavor that your kids will love! If mint is too strong, try a fruity flavor.
- Perfect Toothbrush – There are so many different styles, colors, and character themed toothbrushes. Electric toothbrushes are also a great option. Let your kids pick out their favorite one!
- Brush Together – Little kids like to be just like their parents. Brushing with mom or dad can make the process more enjoyable.
- Music – Play a song while your kids brush their teeth. It can even be a game to brush for the full length of the song. If you are musically inclined, you can sing the song yourself!
- Multitask – Sometimes children need to be distracted in order to sneak in brushing time. Brushing while they are in the bathtub can help while they are distracted with playing and splashing around.
