Yes--Brushing can actually be fun.

Let's face it, brushing your kid's teeth can be difficult.  I remember when I first asked our pediatrician about brushing. 

"Hold him down--sit on him if you have to.  Just make sure they get brushed."

Luckily for me, my boys don't mind it.  But their idea a brushing and my idea of brushing are two different things.  And after too many unsupervised nightime brushings, I received a serious slap on the hand from our dentist about signs of future decay.  So now I'm always on the look out for ways to make our brushing experiences more enjoyable.

These Crayola tooth brushes by GUM look just like the real Crayola markers.  There's even a small little suction cup on the bottom so the brush will stay upright on the bathroom counter.  Even better, they come two to a pack--perfect for kids who always have to have the same of everything.

With these Fun Flossers by DenTek, you will actually be able to tell your dentist that your child flosses!  No wrapping the floss around your fingers and trying to get in and out of your child's mouth with all of your fingers intact.  These are made with easy grip handles so your child can do it himself.  There are 48 flossers, with fluoride that are brightly colored to "encourage healthy oral hygiene habits at an early age."

Here's hoping our next trip to the dentist is a happy one!
