And we'll have lots of fun.

(Tune: "Turkey in the Straw")
Help children celebrate the excitement of losing a tooth with this song.
Oh, look in (child's name) mouth

Until it was free.
Now there's a window when he/she smiles at me!

Hint! When they lose two teeth sing, "Now there's a garage door when
he/she smiles at me!"
