Finally the weather has been nice enough for some good old fashioned playing outside. My 8 year old found one of those little plastic tooth boxes under the tree in the front yard. I taught her what I learned from a Mexican girl I used to work with. She said that in mexico when kids would lose a tooth they would bury it under a tree and sing soe kind of a song about the tree growing and their new tooth growing, too. I really don’t remember the words, although I could look it up. My kids just thought the story was neat. They thought it was interesting that there was no tooth fairy tradition in Mexico.
