Where do I put the book while brushing?
Many families use the book on the couch, or let it stand on the counter for hands-free brushing. It's even a companion tool for dentist visits.
Scroll through the photos to see how kids use it!
Can the book get wet?💧
Our board pages are water resistant — water and toothpaste wipe right off.
Avoid immersing the sound unit — the battery pack isn’t waterproof.
Can't I just use Youtube for this?
Yes! But the book is more effective 😉
The multisensory approach — story, song, and interaction — enhances learning and retention while fostering intrinsic motivation. The Brushing Buddies book:
Builds real habits – Instead of relying on a screen, the book helps create a calm, connected moment between parent and child.
Paces brushing naturally – The built-in songs are timed to match brushing length, helping children learn how long to brush without nagging or timers.
Turns brushing into play – Kids love finding the toothbrushes on each page and following along with the music, which makes brushing feel fun and familiar.
In our pilot with 17 families, parents reported fewer brushing struggles. The book uses proven behavior change and learning science techniques — like sticker rewards, music, and storytelling — to make brushing fun and effective.
What ages is the book best for?
Our sing-along sound book is designed for kids ages 18 months to 6 years old — perfect for toddlers and preschoolers learning healthy brushing habits.
Every child is unique, and their engagement will vary!
Can we bring the book to the dentist?
Absolutely! 🪥✨
Many families tell me it helps their little ones feel more comfortable during their visit — it’s familiar, fun, and gives them something to focus on.
My 20-month-old loved having it in the chair!
