A toothbrushing doll to make with children

Fun from infancy! Here are ideas for making toothbrushing puppets with your children.

You’ll need a milk carton, colored construction paper, and white round stickers.

Cut the milk carton and transform it into your favorite animal! For the final touch, stick the white round stickers—pretending they’re teeth—inside the mouth.

Infants can enjoy this step too, so it’s great to work on together with parents or teachers.

How about practicing scrubbing teeth with the milk-carton toothbrushing puppet you made as a team?

Make it with fabric or felt! Here’s an idea for a dice-shaped toothbrushing doll.

You’ll need fabric or felt, a needle and thread, and scissors.

It’s an engaging idea that uses all six faces of a die to spark interest in teeth.

Through actions like pulling on materials or attaching and detaching hook-and-loop fasteners, children can use their fingers and hand strength while learning the importance of protecting dental health.

The colorful, playful mechanisms are sure to captivate kids! Be sure to include it in your activities and give it a try.

Toothbrushing doll made with hair gel and decorative parts

Here’s an idea for making a toothbrushing doll using hair gel and decorative parts.

You’ll need an illustration, a clear pocket, decorative balls, tape, hair gel, a pen, and glitter.

Place the clear pocket over an illustration with an open mouth.

Trace the teeth onto the clear pocket with a permanent marker, then add hair gel, decorative parts, and glitter inside, and seal it with tape—that’s it! Children can practice brushing to move the “dirt” out of the mouth.

The unique texture of the hair gel will fascinate them.

Toothbrushing doll made using a milk can

To event coordinators! Good evening! I’m Atsumi, a nursery teacher. The crocodile that gets cavities in 100 days! This time, I made a perfect activity for Nursery School Cavity Prevention Day: a chomping crocodile tooth-brushing toy! Last time I used a tissue box, but this time it’s a milk-can version! The key point is to make the crocodile’s teeth out of whiteboard sheet. That way, you can draw germs on the crocodile’s teeth with a whiteboard marker. You can introduce it in a clear, fun way, like: “Oh no! What happened, Mr. Crocodile? You’ve got germs all over your teeth!” “Everyone—let’s brush them clean!” What we learned by playing: By the way, it turned out to be great for more than just toothbrushing play, haha. If you turn it into a raffle box, both kids and adults get super excited! Making it with a milk can keeps it from breaking easily and makes it nice and sturdy. Materials: • Milk can • Construction paper (green, red, white) • Whiteboard sheet (100-yen shop, Daiso) • Whiteboard markers • Whiteboard eraser • Straws for the toothbrush base How to make: 1) Cover the milk can with construction paper to make the crocodile’s body. 2) Make and attach the arms, legs, and tail. 3) Use the milk-can lid to create the crocodile’s face. 3) Make the crocodile’s teeth with whiteboard sheet. 4) Make the toothbrush.

Here’s an idea for making a toothbrushing doll using a milk can.

You’ll need colored construction paper, a milk can, whiteboard sheets, thick paper (cardboard), scissors, glue or double-sided tape, clear tape, whiteboard markers, a sponge, and a wooden skewer or chopstick.

Milk cans are sturdy and hard to break, so they’re great when you want to create something reusable.

Draw some “plaque” on the teeth made from whiteboard sheets, and let children brush it off with a toothbrush made from a sponge! It seems like there are plenty of ways to use this beyond just pretend toothbrushing play.

Chomping Toothbrushing Made with a Paper Cup

Make toothbrushing feel more familiar with pretend play! Here’s a fun idea for a chompy toothbrushing craft made from a paper cup.

You’ll need a paper cup, colored construction paper, a sponge, a popsicle stick, white round stickers, and glue or double-sided tape.

Since the main material is a paper cup, it’s easy to prepare—how nice! Adjust the steps to suit the children’s ages, and consider making a paper-cup toothbrushing puppet as a crafting activity.

Make it and have fun playing with it!

A toy for pulling on various materials

Handmade pull-to-play toy for 0-year-olds

This toy lets children pull on items made from different materials.

It helps develop their sense of touch, so it’s recommended for young kids.

Prepare a basket with holes that you can thread strings through.

Thread the strings through the basket and attach various materials to the ends of the strings—for example, bells, sponges, stretchy keychains, or cardboard toilet paper rolls.

When they pull the bell, it makes a sound; when they pull the sponge, they feel its softness.

They can enjoy a variety of sensations all at once.
