The Tooth Fairy?

Ok, so honestly. How does the "tooth fairy" wake the children up. My "tooth fairy" never woke me up, but I'm sure it has happened. If you actually have tips that young eyes shouldnt be reading yet, (how it's done) email me at straightastudent90@yahoo.com. THANKS

The Tooth Fairy?
Before my grandchild goes to bed, she puts her tooth in a little plastic bag along with a note asking the tooth fairy if Grandma can keep the tooth, and puts them both under her pillow. The Tooth Fairy sneaks in while she is sleeping, never waking her, and easily and quickly slips money under the pillow, leaving the tooth behind for Grandma. She's at the age now where she is beginning to wonder about the Tooth Fairy, so when she lost her last tooth, I had her put the tooth and note under her pillow an hour or so before she would be going to bed so that she wouldn't loose it. That gave the Tooth Fairy time to sneak in the bedroom, slip some money under her pillow, and sneak back out before anyone noticed. Later when it was time for bed, and she checked under the pillow for the tooth, she was surprised to discover the Tooth Fairy had already been there. She and I then spent a few minutes trying to figure out how the Tooth Fairy got into the house without anybody noticing, and we had all been together in the living room at the same time so it couldn't have been one of us that had left the money. So, it had to have been the Tooth Fairy. A believer again. The Tooth Fairy lives on.
Reply:I don't want to do the tooth fairy crap to my kids. I'll give them the money as a reward for the teeth, but I never bought the tooth fairy story myself, so I don't expect my kids to either.
Reply:The "tooth fairy" is very busy and doesn't want to be sneaky so you should get a case for the "tooth fairy" that way it will be easier for the tooth fairy so she can be faster. ;^P
Reply:I think that you should make them put the tooth immediately under their pillow and then when they are preparing for bed make the envelope exchange. I think it's neat if you put a little bit of glitter in the envelope and call it fairy dust. It makes it more believable.
Reply:depends on how much the move if they move alot you could get it under the pillow without them noticing however if they don't I would get a small litte box you could get them at hobby stores and paint it so that the "tooth fairy" knows where to look. Or get a small bag made of felt you know like the one crown royale used to come in. (I assume they still come in this haven't drank since college ;P).
Reply:The toothfair is very snaeky and wnats to to be very aueit and wants you to get your beuty sleep.





Trust me..
Reply:the tooth fairy does not wake them up. Leave the tooth on the table and in the morning the tooth fairy has taken it and left $1
Reply:I realize the idea of the Tooth Fairy (I understand his name is Bruce--anyone remember the "Little Rascals" episode where a dentist and his nurse did refer to the Tooth Fairy as a "he"?) helps offset any trauma over losing a tooth, but it makes me uncomfortable to go to any lengths to convince naive, innocent little tykes that a make believe character is real, and seems always to be more for the amusement of the parents than for the reassurance of the child. In practice, little ones tend to sleep through anything and if they do wake up, it's easy enough to convince them that mom or dad was just checking on them rather than being visited by the tooth trader. Btw, if they're old enough to be visiting Yahoo unsupervised, they're old enough to know the truth. My God, they learn about sex here, and you want them to still believe in fairies and pixies?
