A little girl gave me a big, toothless smile today as she told me the Tooth Fairy had visited her last night. She beamed as she explained that her front big tooth was worth $5, and that’s exactly what the Tooth Fairy brought her…
I immediately thought, “Wow.. I was excited about getting a quarter back when the Tooth Fairy visited me.”
The little girl then went on to tell me everything she plans on buying with the money as she has deemed herself the “richest girl in the world”.
Money doesn't buy happiness... or does it?
Shortly after I ran into a little boy who is in 7th grade. I asked him if he was excited for Halloween and his response wasn’t focused on the costume. Thomas couldn’t wait for all the candy.
In asking if he was going to eat all of the candy he would collect “trick or treating”, he replied, “Not all of it.. I’m going to take some of it to the dentist.”
Now wait a second. What’s the theme here?!? MONEY! Even at a young age, the kids are getting the concept of money and are enjoying the little tastes they get here and there.
I’m the kind of gal who likes to make situations into “win-wins”. This Halloween, get candy and get paid! Local dentists all over the state are collecting candy and will pay you back per pound that they receive.
