Getting my kids to brush their teeth for two minutes every morning and evening is a hellish part of my day. If I can get them to brush for 30seconds then I class that as a win, but I know it is nowhere near good enough. The clever teeth specialists over at Aquafresh have teamed up with Comic Relief (Don't forget it is Red Nose Day tomorrow!) to make brushtime bonkers for kids around the country and encourage a full two minutes of brushing twice a day. A big challenge in our household.
Our Red Nose Day pack included some Aquafresh toothpaste, toothbruses and a mystery little device which looked very much like a Red Nose Day mascot Snuffles! The clever little red contraption is actually a bonkers brushing timer which counts down two minutes of brushing. It makes a whole host of silly noises, huff, puffs and whistles to keep the kids amused and encouraged while brushing. So how did bonkers brushtime go down in my household?
To be honest I am still in shock. We have had 7 days of 100% success with 2 minutes brushing twice a day. The girls love the Snuffles bonkers brushing timer and now instead of arguing over brushing their teeth they argue about who is going to push the button and start the timer! Husband also cannot believe the transformation. One of the most stressful times of our day has become one of the most fun and we know our kid's teeth are heathier in the process. Double win.
You have the chance to win your own bonkers brushing timer when you buy special Red Nose Day packs of Aquafresh. And I have a special giveaway to win an exclusive limited edition Aquafresh Red Nose Day kit including a Snuffles brushing timer. All you have to do is enter via the Rafflecopter form below by 30th March 2017 and remember to watch Red Nose Day on Friday 24th March (tomorrow!)

My 7 year old and 2 year old give me brush time drama every day. They never want to brush their teeth especially as my 7 year old has wobbly teeth and makes a real drama out of brushing.

When my daughter was a toddler, it took two people to brush her teeth, one to hold her down and the other to brush! :( She's fine now though, and has lovely teeth!!

Its always a stress getting my daughter to brush her teeth although letting her know there will be no more sweets ever unless she brushes usually does the trick!

The little ones seem to want to chew their toothbrushes, rather than actually brush their teeth.

My daughter dislikes the tastes of toothpaste we must have tried about 10 different types/flavours before finding one she liked 28/3/2017 10:19:17 pm
H hates brushing her teeth - we have to bargain with her and struggle we are hoping she will grow out of it - luckily her school does tooth brushing after snack time so she is gettin more used to it

My brushing drama is because of me. My gums were becoming red and bleeding and were so sore. Then I noticed they were receding. I thought I wasn't brushing well enough do brushed harder and longer. Turns out I was grinding my teeth on a night and all the brushing was making it worse. All fixed now xx

My son has no enamel on his front 4 teeth and we have to make sure he brushes them properly after every meal. He used to hate it but now he does it himself and I supervise and he knows if he doesn't do it properly I will takeover which he hates!

Melt downs when the iPad has run out of battery so they can't have the brush time videos on! 20/12/2023 07:08:36 am
Such a fun and heartwarming read about making brushtime bonkers with Aquafresh and Comic Relief! It's wonderful to see brands supporting a great cause while making daily routines like brushing teeth more enjoyable. The idea of turning something as simple as brushtime into a lively and fun activity is fantastic. Kudos to Aquafresh for the initiative! Looking forward to adding a bit of bonkers to our family's dental routine. Thanks for sharing this uplifting story!

This spiritual caster known as Lord Krish is really great in helping you get your ex back and making your infertility cured. I am happy to be one of the people to publish about him on the internet as a trusted and reliable spell caster. I am Lorraine Davis from Michigan, USA. Problems began to happen in my marriage after the 4th year of marriage and my husband began to cheat and sleep with other women because I was infertile and was not able to bear him a child. I contacted Lord Krish after reading comments on google and youtube about how he has been helping people and contacted his email: [email protected] to communicate with him and we spoke on Whats-App too. It's been more than a year now and I am happy to write about my encounter with him. Within 2 days of contact, my husband came home and apologized to me for his behavior and pleaded with me to forgive him. Before I knew it, I received the natural fertility herbal cure from the UPS which he sent to me and I became fertile. I conceived and gave birth to twin girls which made me very happy. As a result, my husband throughout my trimester periods, loved me even more. How grateful I am to be happy in my relationship. Contact Lord Krish through email at [email protected] if you are passing through any problem to help you and you will be glad you did Leave a Reply. |
