How much should a tooth elf bring for 1st tooth?

This is for a a boy who is almost 7 (first tooth on the loose). What have you given your children?

2 pounds because its the first times, go down to their last tooth being 50p :)
In american though i would say 5 dollars and go down to 1 dollar for the last tooth they loose :)

I would pick an amount for the first tooth down to the last, Why?
Because they do expect the same amount next to all of them.
I would just give a dollar, at 7 they are still thrilled to catch a dollar.

My husband made the mistake on one of my sons who lost his first tooth, He didn't have dollar bills on him, only $10's and $20's. he put a 10 and our son expected a $10 every time.
Seriously, I would say a dollar at every tooth that comes out, its easier.

One million dollars ! lol jk When I was a kid my parents gave me a couple dollars per tooth. = )

I other give my daughter $3.00 except for her"special tooth". As kids we always had a "special tooth", I forget which one presently lol. My daughter's was a gold tooth that she had to seize. When she lost that one, she got $5 and a toy. Just kind of a tradition we have going.

We gave my son 5 dollars, but that won't be for every tooth, it be just a first time thing, to get him excited for the rest of his teeth to come out...he is 6

wow after reading adjectives of the amounts, i am even more grateful of my single mother.
i never received $1.
i always received at least 3 dollars minimum.

i guess its safe to utter i got it good.

i give my 5yr old 10 dollars and explained to her that it was her first tooth and it was special. so the tooth elf leaves a lot for the first tooth . good thing i explained it to her, because she required to knock off the one next to it that was also loose.

I other got $1,that's it.Losing a tooth isn't a huge thing.Well,maybe for the first time but it should still be one dollar.

You don't want to give him to much. That will lead him on thinking that he will win that much every time he loses a tooth. Around 2.00$ , or 3.50 $.

I got 1 dollar and a stamp for my first. The rest I get 50 cents.

1-2 dollars

$1, he's 7 how much do you consider he needs?

I think that I was given $2 for each tooth, but sometimes $1. At age six, that will give the impression of being like a lot of money.

Try to do something special. Find a silver dollar or a 2 dollar bill. Or you could Fold a dollar into something uncluttered like a ring or fan. It is not really the amount but the way you do it. Good Luck!

It's a recession. $1

According to what I've read from books, it is about a dollar per tooth.

I always got $1, and that be cool.
