tuesday tip - disney magic timer app

we have been loving the disney magic timer app and i thought it was worth sharing. the kids beg to brush their teeth twice a day (the app limits brushing more than that) and it times them for 2 minutes each time while uncovering a quarter of the image every 15 seconds. while it uses crest and oral-b brand toothpaste/brushes, we have been able to use the images from a brochure picked up at the dentist's office and just keep the empty toothpaste tubes to use the image with whatever toothpaste brand i happen to buy next. there is also an option to use a mickey mouse image which requires to crest or oral-b products. if tooth brushing is sometimes (or every time) a battle at your house, give this free app a try. love.

Interesting. How do you keep it clean of toothpaste/water/spit?

The kids used that while you were here (and eating out with Matt). A great idea -- need to use it for Papa. Ha!
