Saffryn was up first!
She did so great! She was very excited and asked a ton of questions! She got a clean bill of health...yay!
Next up was Pierce!
Pierce did so well, too! He was super cooperative! He hit his front tooth a week or so before Christmas and it is now starting to turn colors because of nerve damage. I was glad to have the dentist look at it. He assured me it was nothing to worry about and everything else looks fine!
Colt tried very hard to be patient and didn't have any major meltdowns! He did spend a lot of energy trying to get away from me though. Lol. But really overall I was super proud of all 3 of them!
Since we got new toothbrushes from the dentist we put our old ones to a good use...art project!
We used them as paint brushes and Saffryn and Pierce thought that was so fun and silly!
Disclaimer: NOT a good project for your 16 month old.
Hahah. I thought it probably wasn't going to be, but he wanted to try so I let him.
He already wants to put everything in his mouth and he knows a toothbrush goes in your mouth so he was very confused. Lol! After a bit he did kind of get it, but thought it was pretty lame. He would have rather just brushed his teeth!
But Saffryn and Pierce loved doing it! Here are the paints we most often use in our art projects. Saffryn got it as a gift from a friend last year! We love them!!!
A fun way to extend our trip to the dentist!
Good thing Colt didn’t shove the entire toothbrush into his mouth. Anyway, that was a great way to make use of the old toothbrush. At least the children had fun before you got rid of the old things. It’s also great that they were all so cooperative with the dentist. Thanks for sharing this with us. All the best!
