How to Make Flossing Fun for Your Kids


The late great comedian Mitch Hedberg once said, "It's as hard to quit smoking as it is to start flossing." You don't have to be a smoker to know how true that is. The best way to become a consistent flosser is to start early. Here are three ways you can make flossing fun for your kids:

Make it a game - Turn flossing into a story or a song and your kids will be excited to do it.

Give them cool tools - Let your kids pick out their own tools, like brightly colored floss sticks, and they'll be more eager to use them.

Show their progress - You can put up a chart in the bathroom that tracks their success and give out prizes or rewards.

Any other ideas to get kids flossing? Let us know!
