lol
I can't choose.

Answer 1

I usually do what ever change I have in the bottom of my purse lol....
I tend to usually give about a buck a tooth, but sometimes for good ones, they really had to work at I will give five...

Answer 2

I have been getting a golden dollar (the coin) since my fist tooth! RIPOFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol my parents wont give up even though they know that i know they are the tooth fairy. I found my moms stash of my teeth! Last time i lost a tooth i didnt put a tooth under the pillow instead i put a golden dollar so when my parents came to get the tooth there was ALREADY a golden dollar there. So then when i woke up in tyhe morning I went to mom and dad and said, "Look! The tooth fairy gave me money!!!" And my parents mouths dropped WIDE open!!! It was HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!!!! They glanced at each other like, What?

Answer 3

I plan on giving my son $2 or so but last week he lost his first tooth when it got knocked out while playing ball, it was loose but not ready to come out and the ball hit him right in the face and he was crying, bleeding, and had a missing tooth. I put $10 in place of his tooth that night because I felt so bad for him. He was brused and all upset that he knocked his tooth out and every thing. He loves Yu-Gi-Oh cards and a box cost about $10 so thats why I gave him the whole ten! I made sure he knew that the tooth fairy gave him so much because he lost his tooth by getting hurt and that normally she would give him like a buck or so and then went on to tell him how when mommy and daddy were little we were lucky to get fifty cents and sometimes only got a quarter. That way when he loses his next tooth and there is only $2 he wont think about how much less it is but how much more that a quarter it is! The only problem with the situation is yesterday he was crying at Target because I wouldnt buy him a box of Yu-Gi-Oh cards so he said "Man, I wish another tooth would get knocked out so I could get $10 and buy them myself!" I was like "No way, that was a one time thing, you knock out anymore teeth and she might only give you some pennies cause you arent taking care of them!"

Answer 4

With our first child, she lost her tooth late in the evening. She was so excited! She put it under her pillow....and we only had a $20 in the house. Seriously.

So now we have a tradition that for the first tooth, you get $20. For the front two (top and bottom) you get $5 and all other teeth you get $2.

Answer 5

We live in England so I give my son a one pound coin, because they're gold and very tooth fairy-ish. In US coins, I would probably give him two or three quarters--way better than a bill for a five year old (paper money doesn't make any noise in your pocket), and enough to choose a small treat from the store.

Answer 6

My daughter was nervous about pulling her first tooth, so I told her the tooth fairy would give her a dollar for every tooth she gets help with (mom, dad, the dentist), or two dollars for every tooth she pulls herself.
She took the incentive. Haha.

Answer 7

My daughter hasn't lost any yet but I have to match what the tooth fairy gives her cousins so there wont be any questions. $1 for single teeth and $2 for the bigger ones. It sure beats the 20cents I got when i was a youngster.

Answer 8

I'm not a parent but I got $1 and if the tooth had to be pulled be a dentist it was double.

Answer 9

i got 20$ for regular teeth and 30$ for molars. bot my last tooth i got 50$ but for a normal(not rich and live in a mansion) i would say 5$ a tooth. but i never belived in the tooth fairy because when i was little one night i got up togo to the bathroom and saw my mom was in my brothers room and then i saw she was holding a tooth.

Answer 10

i would say either 1-2 dollars a tooth. my daughter is too young but when it does happen that will probably be what i give her. i use to get that when i was growing up. sometimes my parents gave me jewelry. not the expensive ones (i wish) anything under the pillow from the toothfairy is special anyways. i don't really think it really matters.

Answer 11

As a mom of 6 kids, I had them write a letter to the toothfairy. Then in the morning, they would find a little car, a little pocket doll or a dollar. It depended on the 'toothfairy'. And just to make it more exciting, I would have a little trail of dust she would leave behind going from their door to their pillow. I wouldn't make the trail from the window because I wanted them to feel safe in their bedrooms.
