Sugar Bugs

We have these friends that were able to get theirs boys into religiously brushing their teeth by telling them that if they didn't>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


SUGAR BUGS!!!!




They get in there and the EAT your teeth and they are




BAD!




We copied. Good oral hygiene is important.




The Dad got a winsdom tooth pulled. It was so gross yet fascinating at the same time. I should have been a dentist.




I will spare you the other side... yuck!



But as Starman showed it to Rowan, he looked at her and said "This is...



SUGAR BUGS!"

Her eyes got as big as saucers and we were both surprised she didn't run in and start brushing right then!

We are big believers in the "whatever works" theory on parenting.

Loved this- have to be honest and say we scare the kids with sugar bugs- but even worse, Joe does his snaggletooth impression. "You'll be a snaggletooth, you'll have no teeth except the brown one." You'll have to ask him. It comes complete with a toothless old guy accent and sends the kids running and screaming for toothpaste :)Ryan always says " I no wanna be naggletoof"
