Emily teeth’s party

Emily was 3 years old when her parents talked with her for the first time about brushing her teeth.

“why should I brushed my teeth?” she asked them, ” I want the taste of the candies to stay with me all night, and if I will brush them, the taste will be gone!”

Her parents told her about Karius and Bactus, but she didn’t mind to host them in her mouth. on the contrary, she wanted them to enjoy the taste of her candies also.

When Emily was 3.5 she decided to have a half – birthday celebration.

Her parents agreed, but they told her that the party will be held only inside her room.

“But why?”, she asked them, “I want the entire house for my friends!”, but her parents remained in their positions and Emily invited her friends to her room.

When her friends arrived to the party, her mother hosted them with a large variety of sweets, snacks and goods.

Emily was glad that her friends are having fun, but she noticed that they are dirtying her room with candies leftover’s. She tried to pick up the dirt, but with 30 kids in her little room, that was almost impossible.

When her friends left, she sat at her room desperate from the amount of rush they left behind.  When her mom entered the room she asked her, “Darling, why are you sad? Didn’t you have a great time at the party?”, “I did mom”, Emily answered, “but look – they left so much leftovers, I can’t go to sleep in this messy room”. “I will help you clean your room”, her mother said, “but only if you try to think about the connection between what you feel right now, to your teeth’s feeling”. “mom!”, Emily was amazed, “what is between my feelings and my teeth’s feeling?!”

Emily quickly understood what she needs to do. She rushed to bathroom, and brushed her teeth as thorough as she could. After she finished, she told to her mother, “I want to ask from my teacher to explain the other kids about their teeth’s party and why it is important to clean after they are finish!”

“You are a clever girl “, her mother told her, “now, let’s go to clean her room”.
