What's a cool way to encourage your child to brush for a full 2-3 minutes?

  • I use an Oral B electric brush that has a 2 minute timer, and she loves to brush her teeth with me in the morning, so she brushes for as long as I do. — TonyaLea
  • My kids and I make a dance of it. While playing music, we brush and try to wiggle and not stop brushing while doing dance moves at the same time for one full song on the radio. =) — MyraPhillips
  • I have a 5 yr old and she doesn't quite know what 2-3 min is. So I brush my teeth with her and tell her that I'll race her to 2 min. Of course she's always the winner! We've never had brushing probs! — srichardson0326
