“Dear Tooth Fairy,
When you leave me money for my tooth, could you leave me a letter too? PS I lost a tooth on the sofa.” In this charming story by Alan Durant, a girl writes letters back and forth to the tooth fairy.
In class, we used simple shapes, such as triangles and circles to draw the fairy. Her wand is a toothbrush! We outlined them in sharpie and colored them with oil pastels. The last steps were a watercolor wash and glitter glue for the stars and the crown. Check out her fancy shoes!
If you are trying this at home, you can try drawing the tooth fairy in a similar style or make up your own idea of what you think the tooth fairy looks like! You can use pencils, crayons, markers or paint – whatever art supplies you have at your house.
You can even write letters to the tooth fairy. What do you want to know? How many tooth fairies are there? What does the tooth fairy do with the tooth? The most important thing to do is to have fun with your creations and your letters!
