Tooth Fairy Gift Ideas for Girls and Boys
Some kids are too young for money as a tooth fairy gift. If you’re looking for more magical tooth fairy gifts that keep the magic of childhood alive, then keep reading for our ideas below. There’s lots of ways you can make a visit from the tooth fairy magical. When my daughter, Elodie was little, she was fascinated with fairies. She had very set ideas as to what they looked like and where they lived and what they ate. Elodie’s fairies were very much like the fairies in Cicely Mary Barker’s books which I also loved as a child.
So, when Elodie lost her first tooth (which she lost early as a 4 year old on her last day of nursery in a scooter accident) it seemed silly to give her money as her tooth fairy gift. She was too little to understand the importance of money and so we started a tradition of leaving little fairy related gifts for her instead of money. As time went on, she’d write the tooth fairy letters and we’d write back and her little fairy collection grew. The letters were always a little demanding!
Tooth Fairy Gifts for Kids
In case you also like the idea of tooth fairy notes and gifts as opposed to coins – here are some inexpensive tried and tested fairy gift ideas for boys and girls!
Fairy Dust
Fairy Dust – this has been a winner with both our girl and boy as a fairy tradition. In fact this is what my son, Finlay wrote and asked for last time from the tooth fairy but I didn’t have any! So I simply wrote back and said her bag was too heavy and she’d bring some next time! Amazon has some great deals on fairy dust. If you have lots of children who will be losing their teeth over time – there are 7 enchanting recipes in this set, and fairies are free to write new recipes to promote creativity and discover new magic. They also provide blank potion labels, so girls can create their own. Perfect for sharing with friends!
Little Tooth Box
If it’s a first tooth lost, a little tooth pillow or box is a cute gift so that tooth can always be found! I love these little tooth fairy little wooden boxes!
Fairy Garden Ornaments.
Little things for a fairy garden make fabulous presents for boys or girls. (Finlay likes to put the little things in his dinosaur garden). You can build these up over time too so that they get a whole set for a full fairy garden eventually! Amazon has some great deals on these too.
Mini Lego Kits
Mini little lego kits. These little packets of Lego Minifigures go down very well with my kids.
Flower Fairy Stickers
Flower Fairy Books or Stickers. The Cicely Barker range even has posters and postcards too.
Fairy Writing Set
Fairy writing set or stamp set (so they can write even more letters to the tooth fairy!) These fairy stamps are very cute too!
Fairy Beads
Special Sparkly beads to make their own special necklace makes a cute tooth fairy gift.
Fairy Doors
Fairy Doors are always a winner. You can then get stickers from future tooth fairy visits to decorate the door with. These don’t have to be girly at all. Try this link for some alternatives.
Children Eraser
Children’s Erasers. Smelly ones or cute themed animal ones work well. I love these mini fairy house ones.
Shopkins
Shopkins! Now that my daughter is a fan of Shopkins – these make the perfect tooth fairy gift! Break up a pack and only give a couple to keep the costs down.
Tooth Fairy Book
A tooth themed read for a tooth fairy visit! Try this Dr Seuss one.
You could even make a teeny, tiny treasure box from a walnut. Find out how with a tutorial from Girl Inspired
Tiny candles are great gift ideas – again, we split the pack from these ones to make them go further.
And if you need some mini envelopes to make your little fairy letters even more special – these ones are lovely

Mini craft kits
Mini craft kits for fairy gift ideas that you can put together yourself are cheap – I use up all our craft bits and bobs for this! Or these fairy tattoos are fun!
Fairy Light Jar
This is a gorgeous fairy light for a special tooth fairy present.
Little Elf
Lastly, a little elf or fairy is also must. You can even buy clothes sets for them for additional gifts. These little fairy wands are also a cute idea.
How many teeth do small people lose? I’ve no idea but hopefully that’s enough tooth fairy gift ideas to keep you going! It’s fun to share this rite of passage and celebrate it! If you have any other tooth fairy gift ideas – do share! I’ve still two little people to go who haven’t even started losing their teeth yet!
