What's the going
rate for the Tooth
Fairy at your house?
"A crisp $2 bill from the Hudson
Valley Federal Credit Union for
each tooth. Since we don't use
the $2 bill in daily transactions,
it is a treat for the boys to see
one."
— Goretti Vianney-Benca,
Hyde Park
"For the first tooth, they each got
a $5 bill & a gold $1 coin. After
that, they always get a gold $1
coin and a $1 bill for each tooth.
I also spray the $1 with glitter
spray (a.k.a. fairy dust)."
— Lorraine Giambrone,
Wallkill
"I leave a fairy doll. The fairy
found her too cute and left the
tooth to mommy."
— Priscilla Morales,
Town of Plattekill
"$1 a tooth has been our go-
ing rate. The fairy will have to
splurge on braces for the ones
that they actually get to keep!"
— Jessica Dickinson,
Pleasant Valley
"$2 a tooth, no matter how it
was lost or where in the order."
— Mary Ann McCullough,
Wallkill
"The first tooth is $5. After that,
$1 per tooth."
— Ronni Jarvis, Lagrangveille
"$1 and a small toy — usually a
mini Lalaloopsy."
— Caryn Milliot, Rhinebeck
