    What does the Tooth Fairy pay in Houston?

    Brooke with No Front Teeth
    This is a question that a lot of Houston parents are asking... and it seems the answer varies at households all over the city!

    We asked the BigKidSmallCity community and this is what we found out:

    • The most common amount is 50¢ to $1.00 per tooth.
    • Giving $5 per tooth was pretty common.
    • The highest report amount was $47 for one tooth.
    • Some cool ideas from Houston parents:
      • Molars, teeth that are pulled or the last lost tooth get a little more money.
      • Leaving $2 bills, dollar coins or 50 cent pieces.
      • Leaving a note of congratulations.
      • Leaving glitter on the pillow.
      • Spraying a dollar bill with Halloween glitter hairspray.
      • Folding an origami dollar.
      • Multicultural families have the Tooth Fairy plus the Italian little mouse, Colombian Ratón Perez and they all leave a coin from their country.

    So, what does the Tooth Fairy leave at your house?
