Craft says I inspected this tooth. Excellent enamel. Minor apple damage. Seven out of ten. The fairy will pay in full, but I have notes.
A tooth fairy video message (with a very professional tooth inspection)
A tooth fairy video message is a short, sparkly film "from" the tooth fairy: she thanks your child by name, says something specific about the tooth, and leaves a tiny bit of advice. Keep it under 30 seconds and have it waiting in the morning.

Losing a tooth is a big deal when you are six. There is wiggling, there is drama, there is a small bloody napkin that must be kept forever. And then there is the question every kid asks: does the tooth fairy actually see it? A tooth fairy video message answers that with a sparkly yes. It is a short film "from" the fairy herself, waiting on your phone in the morning, next to whatever she left under the pillow.
Here is what the tooth fairy should say, lines for every tooth situation (including the swallowed one), a script, and a few ways to keep the magic from falling apart.
What should the tooth fairy say in a video message?
She should use your child's name, mention something specific about this tooth, and say thank you. Then add one small, magical detail (what she does with teeth) and a gentle nudge like "keep brushing." Specific beats generic: "a front tooth, how brave!" makes it feel like she really was there.
- The name. Early and clearly. The tooth fairy knows everyone.
- The tooth. Top or bottom, front or back, first or fifth.
- The story. Lost it in an apple? At school? In a sandwich? She knows.
- Her world. Teeth become stars, castle bricks or piano keys. Pick one and stick with it forever.
- A sign-off. A catchphrase your family can reuse for every tooth.
A tooth fairy message script to copy
This is about 50 words, a nice fit for a 20 to 30 second film.
Hello, Olivia! Tooth Fairy here. I just collected your very first tooth, the bottom front one. Super shiny! I'm going to use it to build a new tower in my castle. Thank you for leaving it so neatly. Keep brushing, and I'll see you next wiggle. Sparkle on!
What does the tooth fairy say when the tooth is lost or swallowed?
She stays calm and kind: the tooth still counts. Some teeth come with a story, and every one of them has a line. Here is what she can say for the usual and the tricky ones:
| Situation | What the tooth fairy says |
|---|---|
| First tooth ever | "Your first tooth! This one goes in my special first-tooth collection." |
| Swallowed the tooth | "No tooth? No problem. Fairies can tell when a tooth went on an adventure. Your note was perfect." |
| Lost it at school | "Somewhere at school, a tooth is having a great day. I counted it anyway." |
| Pulled at the dentist | "The dentist told me you were very brave. Dentists and fairies talk, you know." |
| The fairy forgot to come | "I'm so sorry! There was a big storm over Fairyland. I came the very next night." |
| Last baby tooth | "This is the final one. Thank you for every single tooth. You've grown up so much." |
What are some fun tooth fairy video ideas?
Beyond the simple thank-you, a few formats make the moment even bigger. Choose one that fits your kid's age and humor.
- The tooth report A very official inspection: "Shine: excellent. Size: tiny. Bravery: off the charts."
- Fairy news flash A breaking news bulletin from Fairyland: "Local child loses tooth in pizza incident."
- The receipt A sparkly list of what the tooth will become: two stars and one small castle window.
- The fairy's map Her flight route from Fairyland to your kid's bedroom, with a stop for a snack.
- The tooth tally A running count that updates every tooth: "That's six! Only fourteen to go."
How do you keep the tooth fairy magic believable?
Stay consistent and stay small. Use the same sign-off every time, keep the fairy's world the same, and let her know one private detail that only home would know. Deliver it in the morning, like the pillow surprise, not at bedtime when your kid is watching you type.
And when an older kid asks "is it you?", that is a family call. Some parents keep the fun going, some let the kid in on the secret and make them the fairy's assistant for a younger sibling. Both are lovely. A kid who gets promoted to Assistant Fairy often guards the secret more fiercely than any grown-up ever did, and helps write the next script with great seriousness.
How do you make a tooth fairy video, step by step?
- Step 1
Write down the tooth details as soon as it comes out. Which one, where, how.
- Step 2
Write the message in five short lines: hello, the tooth, what she does with it, thank you, sign-off.
- Step 3
Make the film after bedtime, quietly.
- Step 4
Leave a clue under the pillow: "The tooth fairy left you a message. Ask Mom."
- Step 5
Save it. One file per tooth becomes a funny collection by the time they are ten.
Making a tooth fairy message in Nine
Nine makes short drawn films, and every film Nine writes on a paid plan comes with a voice, music and sound effects. That solves the "that's Dad" problem nicely. Paste your five lines as A script, and each paragraph becomes a scene, or give it Just an idea: "the tooth fairy thanks Olivia for her first tooth and builds a castle tower with it." Then say "more sparkle" or "slower" and get a new version.
No photo of your child is needed, and the film is made while you watch, so it is done before your tea gets cold. You get a video file to show in the morning, and Nine never sends it to anyone. Films run up to 20 seconds on Film, from $29 a month. See the plans.

Questions people ask
How much does the tooth fairy leave?
It varies a lot between families and countries, so there is no right answer. What matters more to most kids is the ritual: the note, the surprise, and now maybe a message. Pick an amount that works for your family and keep it steady, because kids compare notes on the playground.
How long should a tooth fairy video message be?
About 15 to 30 seconds. Long enough for her to say hello, mention the tooth and sign off, short enough to feel like a quick visit from a very busy fairy. She has a lot of pillows to visit tonight, after all.
What if my child swallowed or lost the tooth?
Have the fairy say it does not matter. "Fairies can tell when a tooth went on an adventure" works well. Let your child write her a note explaining what happened, and have the video thank them for the note. Kids feel relieved, and the note becomes part of the story.
Can the tooth fairy video use my child's name without a photo?
Yes. The fairy saying their name is what makes it personal, and a drawn film needs no photo at all. That also means the file is safe to send to grandparents without any pictures of your child in it. The name and the tooth story do all the work.
When should I show the tooth fairy video?
In the morning, together with the pillow surprise. It keeps the story straight: the fairy came in the night and left a message. Leave a small clue under the pillow so your child asks to see it, rather than you announcing it.
