DENTAL AWARENESS

It is Dental Awareness month and we are so lucky to have TWO preschool Moms who work for a dentist office and they do a fabulous job pulling our dental awareness day together so my students are educated and go home with a truck load of goodies provided by Dr. Tomlinson and his office!!! A huge thank you to Dr. T, Kathleen and Tasha for making this happen for my Teea Timer’s!!!!



BUGSY the puppet bug came early so the students could practice brushing his huge wonderful teeth and Ms. Tasha talked to us about brushing, flossing, fluoride and what it is like to go to the dentist for the first time. Ms. Tasha answered all kinds of questions and showed us and awesome DVD about a dinosaur who goes to the dentist too. At the end she gave us wonderful goodie bags filled with very cool things!!!!








We made a simple cool craft with construction paper cut into an oval shape and we cut white styrofoam in to little pieces and glued them into the mouth for teeth, colored a tongue and used white yarn for dental floss!
 IF YOU ARE A TEEA TIME PARENT, HEAD OVER TO OUR TEEA TIME FACEBOOK PAGE AND GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO TASH AND KATHLEEN FOR PULLING THIS TOGETHER!!!

It’s nice to know that some doctors take time to educate children about dental health. I want to know what happened to those kids and hear their stories.

I like the second picture of the little girl doing an operation with the stuff toy. They are having fun and they are learning with this activity too.
