A friend of mine has decided that the Tooth Fairy has more than enough business to attend to, and has arranged that a FOTF (Friend of the Tooth Fairy) attends personally to her children.
The "Mousies" come to visit whenever a tooth is lost. The tooth is carefully placed in a porcelain box purchased for each child on the occasion of the first tooth loss.
Along with the tooth and a note to the mousies a cookie is placed next to the box. This is to teach the children that it is as important to give as to receive. The Mousies write a reply to the letter, as well as leaving a gift (not always cash) in exchange for the cookie and the tooth.
Both sets of grandparents are on board with respect to the Mousies in the event that tooth loss occurs during an overnight visit.
