Make Brushing Fun

Let’s face it, brushing your teeth is a chore. So how do you turn this chore into fun? By turning it into a game! You can play music while you brush your teeth, see if you can beat the commercial breaks during their favorite TV show, or even make up a story while you are brushing your teeth that continues only when they brush their teeth again.

Brush Your Teeth With Your Child

Children learn by imitation, and if they see you brush their teeth, then they are more likely to do so, too. However, you can take this to the next level by brushing your teeth alongside your child. Odds are, they will love this family bonding time with you.

Offer Rewards & Incentives

Most of us will work harder for rewards, as will kids. Find out what they love receiving, and offer that as incentive to brush their teeth. This could be a sticker, a choice in bedtime stories, or even just a hug and a twirl afterward.
