Brush, Brush, Brush! (Rookie Toddler)

This book is a total game-changer for brushing time—bright, fun illustrations, and a catchy little rhyme that actually makes my toddler excited to brush! It’s the perfect mix of entertaining and educational, and it makes the whole routine way easier. If you’re struggling with brush time battles, this little gem might just be the solution!

My daughter is obsessed with this book. I hear it when the book is no where to be found because she has remembered every single word. She just turned two. We bought this book because we borrowed it from the library and bawled her eyes out when we had to return it.

My initial reaction to the book was disappointment in myself for not looking carefully enough at what I was ordering. I thought that it was an awkward song and bland pictures without any storyline that would convince kids to brush their teeth, but I'd already bought it and didn't feel like returning. I showed my toddler and stumbled through the song. She liked it. She picked that book off the bookshelf multiple times in the coming days. Days later during our daily wrestling match to attempt to brush her teeth, I tried singing the song... and she calmed down. A fluke? A coincidence? I tried again the next day, and she calmly stood while I brushed her teeth and sang this stupid song. She still tries to bite the toothbrush a bit, but the screaming wrestling matches are gone. I don't know why this book is so magical for toddlers, but I appreciate it!

My 17 month old needed a little motivation for brushing her teeth. After a few weeks the Elmo "Brushy Brush" song wasn't cutting it, so we needed a new tactic, so we bought this book. Pros: - My daughter definitely liked it. She would actually brush her teeth on her own while imitating the illustrations - It's a quick and easy read - Goes along to a tune Cons: - After a week or so, my daughter was over it (yay for toddlers!) - The book is so short you have to read it a few times - The song is incomplete which is kind of weird because it's suggested that you read it to the tune of "Do your ears hang low" but literally ends before the verse ends. All in all, it was a good tool to use, even if it was for a short time. We'll probably take it out again in the future as a "new" book to see if it still engages her in brushing her teeth. It's not a horrible buy, but don't expect it to work miracles!

Purchased for my 1 1/2 yr old granddaughter who did not want to brush her teeth at all. Cute book and sing song lyrics. We would sing the book to her while brushing her teeth and eventually it helped her calm down allow her teeth to be brushed.

This works like magic! My 18mo refused to put the toothbrush in his mouth so I desperately looked for creative solutions. On the first page of this book he was so excited to brush his teeth that now this book is a treat, as well as brushing teeth! We read it twice so it takes more than 2 min and he is brushing all the time! This really works!!

I heard about this book in a mother's forum. Its OK, but not fabulous. It should be sung to 'do your ears hang low' but it seems to miss a verse in the middle which makes it awkward to sing. If you want to get technical, you should brush your teeth in circular motion not 'up and down and left and right'. There is a missed opportunity to make it a bit more instructional for a toddler. Its cute though, and was good inspiration to make up some other lyrics to make it work for us.

Fun book for the kids to get interested in cleaning their own teeth

We read this and brush our teeth at the same time, has helped find a little routine

My little girl will not let me brush her teeth, she likes to try and do it herself, she is very indepedant. She loves reading so I bought this book to try and encourage her to brush her teeth like a big girl and to let Mummy help. My little girl is thrilled with the book and it seems to be working. Great help!

This book has influenced my son (2y/o) about brushing his teeth. His behaviour towards toothbrushing changed drastically after we read him this book. Since then, he would do it alone and he had learned to spit out the water into the sink. It has encouraged him to be independent, but of course as we know young toddlers can't do tasks properly so I repeat the process once his attention is diverted to playing the water.
