​The Tooth Fairy Game​ (October 1996) was invented in Ruby Tuesdays, where several daughters and I were waiting for our food.  I suggested we invent a game while we were waiting.  Joana, who was about six at the time, started to protest when one of her very loose teeth fell out and bounced across the table, and the Tooth Fairy game was born. The game is played on a board where the players lose 4 teeth from a smiling plastic mouth. The game is played on a board where players land on different events that cause them to lose teeth from a smiling plastic mouth.  When players land on the “Go to Bed” space, they place their tooth under the pillow and the tooth fairy magically turns it into a gold coin.
