Quite a few of the children who come to see me have sensory issues that make teeth brushing a daily struggle. Princess and superhero themed toothbrushes are one way to make a necessary routine child-friendly and help with carryover and healthy oral-care. Another is to add a ‘toothbrush guardian’ (added bonus: this allows an inexpensive way to keep up with the recommended frequent change of toothbrushes).
To make Brushosaurus, drill a pair of holes into a plastic toy to make a handy dandy toothbrush organizer. Has been known to work just as well with magic ponies, sheep, unicorns, giraffes, and even the occasional Brushoturtle.
Brush on!

I really like this idea! Will definitely share with my clients’ families.

Sometimes it is the small things, isn’t it? 🙂 I found it quite helpful, especially when the children got to choose who will “watch over” their toothbrush between brushings …

Thanks! I can’t say I have invented it – am sure others have done this before – but it’s been a cool thing to do with kids for some years now. 🙂
