![]() ![]() My Hold the Magic order arrived quickly, and the three pouches were tucked inside a small-yet sturdy-cardboard box. I opted for the Ahoy Matey gift set, because I thought it would appeal to both my son and daughter alike-plus who isn't a sucker for a tiny ship in a bottle? ![]() They've already lost a few teeth, so they're used to getting glitter-sprayed cash and a toy or two, but I figured that would make them rather discerning testers. To be honest, I wasn't sure if my kids would be into the whole magical treasure thing. A small magnifying glass can be added to your order for an additional $9.99. How much does Hold the Magic cost?Įach set includes three gift bags for three different tooth fairy visits, and costs $29.99, plus shipping. A vial of "fairy dust" (aka glitter) is also included in each box, for parents who are more fun than I am and don't care if glitter gets all over their child's bed pillows. Packaged in three separate golden treasure pouches-enough for three Tooth Fairy visits-each bag holds a piece or two of the complete miniature play set.Īlso included in each pouch is a small letter from the Tooth Fairy herself, which is enclosed in a glittery gold envelope. Hold the Magic offers 11 different themes to choose from, varying from a Petite Princess Tea Party to a Tiny Tinkering set with miniature tools. With the tagline "Give magic, not money," the idea is to gift kids with things that are more meaningful than dollar bills, especially since the average 6-year-old is too young to appreciate cold hard cash. What is Hold the Magic?Ĭreated by a mom who wanted to leave something more, well, magical under her daughter's pillow, Hold the Magic creates small bags of Tooth Fairy treasure to tuck under a child's pillow. That's the exact idea behind Hold the Magic, a company that creates teeny tiny whimsical gifts that are the perfect thing for the Tooth Fairy to leave under a child's pillow. Setting aside how ridiculous it is that someone gave a child $100 for a crusty old tooth, wouldn't it be nice if the Tooth Fairy provided some uniformity to her gift giving? Some kids get two dollar bills sprayed with glitter, others get toys, and I've even heard that one kid got a hundred dollar bill. Now that I'm a seasoned veteran of the Tooth Fairy routine, I'm here to tell you that the hardest thing-other than staying up late enough to ensure your kids are fully asleep-is knowing what to leave under their pillow. At the time, it felt like the days of loose teeth and midnight visits from the Tooth Fairy were far in the future, but as with most things related to parenting, the time flew by and that pillow has gotten lots of use in the last few years. You can only make the experience more fun with a little creativity.One of the gifts I got at my baby shower was a tooth fairy pillow. The tooth fairy is often a rite of passage for children as they grow their adult teeth. You can make crafts or letters to personalize the experience or add flair like "fairy dust" to make the tooth fairy more magical. How to Be the Tooth Fairyīeing the tooth fairy for your child can be fun and memorable. Your child puts the tooth inside the container and wakes up to the gift, money, and/or note inside. This is a fun activity to do with your child to get them excited for the tooth fairy. Use markers, construction paper, tape, and glitter glue to personalize the container, so the tooth fairy knows whose it is. These can be decorated breath mint boxes, chapstick tubes, or any small container. You can craft or purchase a tooth fairy box to put under the pillow or some other place in the bedroom. Decorate a Tooth Fairy ‘Gift Box’ With Your Child ![]() You can write encouragement for oral care or explain what the tooth fairy does with the teeth (be creative!). Use a special colorful pen, use nice handwriting and add some glitter as "fairy dust" in a note for your child. There are also little pillows or containers to put the tooth in or on for the special night to add to the excitement. This will add to the tooth fairy visit and make it more magical. You can add an extra flair to the tooth fairy by leaving a little glitter, footprints, stickers, or a signature while your child is asleep. Add to the Mystery and Magic of the Tooth Fairy Remember that whichever "payment" for their teeth you choose, you may set expectations for future tooth fairy gifts. Picking out a toy or gift your child will love will make your child feel special and teach them that the Tooth Fairy knows them like Santa Claus. Leaving gifts such as treats, toys, or little books will thrill younger children and teach your older children that money isn't everything.
