Question of the Week!

Kayleigh S., age 5 wants to know:

What do you do with the teeth you collect?

Oh, what a delightful question! You see, we fairies are quite the builders, and baby teeth are one of the strongest, most magical materials in the fairy realm. When I return to Fairyland after an evening of collecting teeth, I sort them and distribute them to other fairies. Some fairies use them to build shimmering fences that glow in the moonlight. Others craft tiny bridges and twinkling pathways through enchanted forests. And, of course, I keep the most unique ones in my Grand Collection, where I can admire their charm and remember all the giggles and brave smiles that came with them. Every tooth I collect is a little treasure and holds a bit of childhood magic so we take care to use them in the most wonderful ways. Thank you for your question and rest assured, your tooth is in very good hands—or rather, very good wings!

With Love,

The Tooth Fairy
