We didn't realize how much of a difference we would see once we #MakeBrushingFun for our kids until we tried it. It helped us reduce the fuss a lot, and due credit goes to #ColgateKids toothpaste for helping to make this a fun, enjoyable activity for our little one rather than a fuss-filled task.
Thanks to their cartoon character packs, she gets excited and asks me for her Motu Patlu paste when I say that it is time to brush our teeth. And she also really likes the fruity flavors of the paste. With minty toothpaste, she often rushed to spit it out and wouldn't let me use it.
And now, what she really likes is the new stickers that Colgate Kids has started adding in the packs. These stickers tell a story, and they are so colorful and fun. The most fun part for my little one? Sticking it and then applying water, watching the colors pop as she applies to water. Then she watches the story and brushing becomes more like story-time!
But with all this, we should remember - don't force your kids to brush. Try asking them to brush with you. Let them brush your teeth for some time and then you can brush their teeth. Allow them to see it as a normal habit rather than something that is forced on them.
With a little help from such kid-friendly toothpaste like Colgate Kids, work to #MakeBrushingFun and fuss-free as well! @colgatein
