No, I'm the Tooth Fairy!


No, I'm the Tooth Fairy!

Despite the evil glare in my eye in this picture, I'm a good witch. This is a Halloween costume that I thought would make my parents proud. I'm not sure if you can see it, but I also have a toothbrush wand.

I got to explain about the tooth fairy. I think there was one kid who'd heard of the custom, but no adults had.

When children lose their teeth here, if it's a lower tooth, they're supposed to throw it over the roof of their house for good luck, and if it's a upper tooth, they throw it under (?) the floor. They also say a special prayer.
