Finally brushing his teeth!

We have been trying to get this little monster to brush his teeth for ages now. We have bought him his toothbrush and toothpaste months ago but he just refused to do it.

I have to almost use force every morning using a wet cloth to clean his teeth and risking getting my fingers bitten by him (which can be an extremely painful experience).

Well, the good news is he finally agrees to brush his own teeth with his toothbrush and even insisted on having his own toothpaste. The trick is daddy has to brush at the same time. And the major factor why he enjoys brushing his teeth now is because he gets to squat next to the wash basin and plays with the running tap water while he brushes his teeth.

Well, at least he is willingly doing it now every morning before he goes to his daycare and every night before he goes to sleep. And I don't have to risk getting my fingers bitten again.

Kids really prefer to do things in a playful way! Brushing along with daddy must be really fun to do! You should try to buy a toothpaste with a delicious flavor too! Tell him not to eat it, though. When he grows up, the hobby of brushing along with daddy will benefit him 'cause he's gotten used to doing it. Congrats on making the trick, btw. :D
