Activity- A Tooth Tale On a stuffed animal (or puppet) show the children how to properly brush their teeth. Place toothbrush at a slight upward angle on the outside of the back bottom teeth. Make small circular motions on all the bottom teeth, then do the same circular motion on the inside of the bottom teeth. Once done with the bottom teeth move to the top teeth and do the same thing to keep that smile shining. Have children pretend their finger is a toothbrush and have them practice. PREPARATION Cut 10 teeth out of construction paper. Write a number on each 1-10. ACTIVITY Tell A Tooth Tale by Mary Jane Butner. As you say each part of the rhyme take a tooth off the flannel board (counting down to one) and hand it to a child. Music and Finger plays: A Tooth Tale Ten baby teeth chomping food so fine, One fell out-then there were nine. Nine baby teeth said, "Chewing is great!" One fell out-then there were eight. Eight baby teeth said, "We belong to Kevin." Kevin bit an apple-then there were seven. Seven baby teeth munching pretzel sticks, One fell out-then there were six. Six baby teeth gulping cottage cheese with chives, One fell out-then there were five. Five baby teeth cried, "We want to eat some more!" One fell out-then there were four. Four baby teeth said, "Is that a carrot stick we see?" They bit into that carrot-then there were three. Three baby teeth sobbed, "We bit off more than we can chew." One fell out-then there were two. Two baby teeth gnawed a hot cross bun,

One fell out -and then there was one. One baby tooth exclaimed, "I can hardly chew this crumb." One fell out-then there were none. BUT all the time those baby teeth were falling one by one, Some new teeth were growing in. And now my tooth's tale's done. Activity- Brush the Egg PREPARATION Hardboil an egg the day before and place it in a cup of dark soda (pepsi, coke, root beer, etc.) ACTIVITY Talk to the children about keeping their teeth clean. Take the egg out of the soda and show them how discoloured and yellow it looks (looks like plaque). Pull out a toothbrush and show them how to put paste on it (each child can have their own brush and put their own paste on). Show them that the toothbrush with paste will take the yellowing off of the egg. Have each child take a turn while you sing the song. Music and Finger plays: Got My Toothpaste (Sung to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star) Got my toothpaste, got my brush, I wont hurry, I wont rush. Making sure my teeth are clean, Front and back and in between. When I brush for quite a while, I will have a happy smile! Activity- Happy Tooth, Sad Tooth PREPARATION Print out the Happy Tooth, Sad Tooth printable. ACTIVITY Tell the story of The Toothache with whatever puppet you decide to use as *Jenny. When the story is over give each child a food picture talk to them about good foods and bad foods for our teeth. Music and Finger plays: The Toothache *Jenny Giraffe was tired of eating just leaves She decided instead to eat candy and cupcakes and all kinds of sweets. She then went to bed without brushing her teeth. In the morning she woke with a terrible SCREECH. She let out a moan, and she let out a groan. She thought to herself, I wonder whats wrong. She went to the mirror and opened up wide She struggled and struggled to look what was inside.

What she found was not something fun. She thought to herself what have I done?! She ran to the sink all in a rush And hurried and hurried to get out her brush. In her great haste she almost forgot the toothpaste. She slathered it on and as fast as she could She brushed her teeth just like she should. She brushed and brushed and brushed some more, She brushed until her teeth felt sore. She opened up wide And again looked inside What she found this time was great She had brushed before it was too late. Next time she said I wont eat all those sweets Ill stick to my spinach, my carrots, and beets. And no matter what I eat Ill remember to brush and brush and brush my teeth! Center Sensory Read the book LMNO PEAS by Keith Baker o Introduce the letter G Phonics: Play Letter G Video Category Day E Activity Shaving Cream Teeth Description Cut the bottoms off of large plastic soda bottles and turn them upside down - they look like teeth!

Give each child a white tile. Provide different foods to put on their tiles (preferably things with texture that are spreadable. Relish, ketchup, honey, toothpaste, peanut butter, etc.) Help them to spread the things over their tiles. Then use the toothbrushes to wipe them clean. Talk about the different textures of the foods. Make a model of half of the mouth using construction paper and egg cartons (http://kristinsenseofwonder.blogspot.com/2012/02 /lets-play-dentist.html ). Put different foods in between the teeth. Help the children to use floss to get the food out. Talk to them about why its importation to floss. Cut out a LARGE toothbrush (about 48 inches long; the handle should be 6 inches wide and the bristles the appropriate porportions to the handle); a variety of arts/crafts supplies (fabric,

ribbon, sequins, etc.); pompoms, yarn, glitter glue, crayons, markers, etc. The children decorate a classroom toothbrush that can be hung outside your classroom (or inside!) to introduce your Dental Health theme! If you don't have tooth shape lacing cards, make them! Cut out a tooth shape from colored poster board. Hole punch around the edges. Provide laces with a knot in one end. Provide other dental health items as lacing cards such as floss shapes, toothpaste, etc Give each child a printout of Johnny/Jenny (a child with a toothy grin). Help them to glue sequins on their teeth to look like braces! Talk to them about going to the dentist to get different things done to their teeth and how they dont need to be scared. Cut large teeth out of construction paper (printable). Let children string paint on the teeth with the dental floss. Also provide toothbrushs the children can use to splatter paint onto the teeth with.these! Encourage them to color with just red and blue so they can see the shade of purple that they make. Experiment with other colors as well! VARIATION: Instead of spray bottles, provide the children with eye droppers and small cups of water to drop water where they want. Great fine motor skill practice! *These dry very quickly. Slice apples in 4 pieces and lay 2 peices white edges together red skins to the outside. Spread peanut butter between the apples and put a row of mini marshmallows across the peanut butter. Walla....you have 2 lips and teeth ! We did this for snack on our dental health day.
