Thing 1 (titchy five year old who is 'full of beans') came out of school today with a little envelope saying her tooth had fallen out and that it was in the envelope. Turns out it was a little white stone and that five teachers/dinner ladies had spent most of lunchtime checking her mouth for a 'gap'!
Aww bless her, they are funny aren't they - my 3 year old Grandson arrived here from Nursery on Tuesday and announced he had broken his leg. The next three hours consisted on the limp moving from one leg to the other and then for a while none at all.
It's £1 a tooth but at the moment is #2 is losing teeth like its going out of fashion, thing 2 has lost some teeth and I'm just waiting for girl to lose some more.
The stone wasn't in her meal (packed lunches), she always seem to have stones about her person (and glitter and sequins).
when I lived in Sharjah [ next town to Dubai] and a Brit kid used to loose a tooth there was a frantic search amongst expats for small UK cash to put under the pillow of the child, there is was no way the tooth fairy would have flown all the way from UK and left UAE dirhams under the pillow.
