    My kids can’t do a good job even with an electric toothbrush. My God! When do they learn to do it right?

      We came up with a (quite stupid, but fun) “brushing teeth” song. It’s to the tune of baby shark. It works out well and it takes almost exactly 2 minutes to sing. It also gets good coverage. My 4 year old daughter now demands it every time… 😬😅😬

      Verses are:

      • Brush your teeth do do do do do…

      • Brush the top do do do do do…

      • Brush the bottom do do do do do…

      • Brush the left do do do do do…

      • Brush the right do do do do do…

      • Brush the back do do do do do…

      • Brush the front do do do do do…

      • Brush… Everywhere! do do do do do…

      • Now you’re done! do do do do do…

      I didn’t learn well into my 20s when my teeth started falling apart… it was less about learning and more about lazy I think.

      Also, I didn’t know until like a year ago that you’re supposed to floss BEFORE brushing. That was embarrassing.

        I brush, floss, and brush again because I forgot to floss first. But I don’t always floss. I don’t think it’s the end of the world unless you’re having actual issues and need to adjust a bit to catch that variable.
