My second happily opened for fingerbrush just to bite me like a motherducker every day.😖
I bought them u-shaped silicon brushes, they loved it. Smaller one used it more as a chewing toy, but it's hairy enough to do some work.
😂 Will try both! Also, I haven’t been able to zap for a bit and I just want to say that your humor is tooooo good!!! 👏🏻🙌🏻 Makes me laugh out loud every time I check in on here. Thank you for that! 🐻👑
Thank you! I'm glad when people laugh at my shitposting, not that I could elevate the quality whatsoever 😅
My godson, he would only allow it if both his parents will do it with him. He was afraid of the process and realised it wasn’t going to hurt him after a while.
That’s encouraging. I will try that consistently, too. Also, je suis jalouse! Toutes ces pâtisseries! La vie d’une vraie reine et visiblement en bonne compagnie. 🤗😌
Pinch their nose, if that’s allowed.
Wait. Tell me more, please.
You need a tooth brush time song.
Operatic, and flamboyant. Dance moves obligatory.
Toothy Brush, brushy tooth, thoothy thoothy thoothy tooth. Brushy brush, toothy brush...
Gets the kids laughing.
I’ve got that tune in my mind already.

Relax. Just relax.

Video distraction, the music in the video was about brushing teeth
The only position that really worked to brush his teeth was he lying on the bed, using my legs to hold his furious arms. After a while he learned it didn't hurt and accepted it.
We got a dinosaur and ask him to brush its teeth. When he tried, we close the dinos mouth to show how difficult it was. We then asked him to ask dino to open his mouth. So he did. We opened dinos mouth and he brushed dinos teeth.
After a while somehow he learned he needed to cooperate.
Thank you for this. It’s encouraging.
