Nothing Says “I Love My Child” Like a Baby Tooth Keeper

There are many milestones in a child’s life that as parents we want to save. We kept the bracelet our son had in the hospital, we kept his early doctor visit notes, etc. I draw the line, though, at an item I didn’t even know existed until this week: a baby tooth keeper.

These are exactly what they sound like; boxes and scrapbooks designed to let you save a child’s baby teeth for posterity. Or until you forget, and someday your kids find a box of teeth and wonder if you were a serial killer. Maybe I am just a bad mom, but the idea of preserving my child’s teeth sort of creeps me out…have you used these, or would you? There’s plenty of options out there, including an entire web store devoted to toothy storage choices!
