For teeth that fall out quicker than expected and catch her unawares (or with nothing smaller than ?5), the tooth fairy has been known to raid children's money boxes and recycle a coin given previously. While she feels a slight amount of guilt for adopting this slightly unsavoury approach, she has also saved a considerable amount of money by doing so...


(Might not get away with it now that son is using his tooth fairy money to buy World Cup stickers for his album)

My daughter asked for 5p for her first tooth that fell out as she is 5 years old. She then demanded 6p for the 2nd to fall out, even though she is still 5. No more have fallen out since but I presume 7p is next! I'm not keen to give her any coins. She just loses them or is she doesn't lose them, then she's too much of a tightwad to part with any of her own pennies for low value treats (penny sweets etc)

Two of mine had teeth fall out whilst on hols in Spain and deftly worked out it was better to wait until they came home to get a pound coin rather than a Euro coin.



With her last tooth, my eldest who is 12, said to me before going to bed you may as well just give me the pound now to save creeping into my room later.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
