[The Devoted Dabbler] Monday Devotions: Redemptive toothbrushing

[Jen McGowan Designs]

Hey there, Dearly Devoteds! 


Candy for breakfast?


The day after Halloween requires everyone to become Pro-Dentite.


What's the 411 on kids' toothbrushes? Well, the American Dental Association recommends that kids (and everyone else) use soft bristle brushes as they are easy on the gums but still get the job done.


Toss 'em every three months or after every cold or nasty illness your kid has---expensive, maybe, but germies can lounge around for 48 hours or so which means your little ones could reinfect themselves...ech!

Buy the store brand. They're fine. I find Target brand fits into our wall-mounted toothbrush holder better than any other brand. They're cheap and they get the job done.


Electric toothbrushes are great for kids and if you are able to pick one up on sale, they're often around the same price as a manual toothbrush. They do all the hard work--you just have to get them in your kid's mouth. They stand up well on their own and can make brushing really fun and speedy--good for little pro-dentites who like to stall at bedtime.


If you like it, please share it on facebook or via email.

See you soon....for Midweek Dabbling.
