If we asked about one of the most challenging tasks at home when starting the day or preparing for bed, we can almost hear many of you say, "Brushing teeth!" Teaching self-care skills to little ones, especially the habit of brushing teeth, can sometimes turn into an exhausting routine. However, in early childhood, hygiene habits become permanent not through fear or force, but only through play and fun.
This is exactly where Poffypuf comes to the rescue again! But this time in the bathroom, with a toothbrush in hand and a giant smile...
Our new children's song, "I Am Brushing My Teeth (Brush, Dance, Smile)", invites kids to a fun dance party right at the sink. This process, which supports your child's fine motor skills and boosts their self-confidence, turns into a 2-minute game with Poffypuf's upbeat rhythm. Our song tells the little ones in a story-like way to use only a "pea-sized" amount of toothpaste, not to wet the brush beforehand, and never to forget the back teeth and the tongue.
If you are ready, let's turn on the water (and turn it off right after to save water!), grab the brushes, and dance the germs away!

If you'd like to accompany your child at the sink and join this joyful dance, the lyrics to our song are right below. Wishing you bright, sparkling smiles...
Song Lyrics
Sun is shining, rise and shine
Run to the bathroom, it is time
Grab your brush, your trusty friend
The sleepy feeling has to end
Pea-sized paste, just a tiny bit
Don't get it wet, that is the trick
Open wide and say "Ahh" please
Say goodbye to cavities!
Brush and dance and move your feet
Make those germs accept defeat
Round and round, circles small
We are gonna clean them all
Sparkle, shine, like a star
Best smile in the world by far
Front ones are easy, but don't stop there
The back ones need a little care
Hiding spots for snacks and food
Chase them out, change the mood
Poffypuf is cheering loud
Joining in with the happy crowd
Now the tongue, don't forget
Freshest breath you'll ever get!
Brush and dance and move your feet
Make those germs accept defeat
Round and round, circles small
We are gonna clean them all
Sparkle, shine, like a star
Best smile in the world by far
Don't swallow foam, spit it out
That is what it's all about
Two whole minutes, fun and fast
Healthy teeth are built to last
Rinse and spit, you're doing great
Celebrate with your brushing mate
Brush and dance and move your feet
Make those germs accept defeat
Round and round, circles small
We are gonna clean them all
Sparkle, shine, like a star
Best smile in the world by far
Turn off the tap, save water too
Look in the mirror, look at you!
A super smile for everyone
Great job kids, we are done!
