Hmm.. now what do I do about THIS...

[Arimeh]

So I brought DS some crayons because I know they use them at his day care...

And while I was trying to settle the baby today - I turned around, and he had eaten most of the purple one...

Now how the HELL do I get it out of his teeth??!?! I've tried brushing them (which he hated) but because its so waxy, its stuck in all his back teeth and I can't remove it!!!!!

I'm laughing inside because its really quite funny... but my child has purple teeth....

Any suggestions..?

Take lots of photos and embarrass him at his 21st?
I googled it and all I found was this poem....

"If You Give a Toddler a Crayon"

inspired by "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" by by Laura Joffe Numeroff

based on actually events between my daughter Miriam and myself



If you give a toddler a crayon,

Most likely she will chew on it.

And if she chews on it,

Most likely she will drool.

And when she drools, she will drool red,

All down her hands and the front of her white shirt.

So you will grab the toddler and the box of wipes,

And wipe the hands first.

And then you wipe the face.

Then you noticed that because the toddler chewed on the crayon,

She now has red teeth.

So you try to wipe her teeth.

And if you try this, you will be bitten.

After checking the throbbing finger,

You decide it's okay, and time for the toothbrush.

So you carry the now shirtless toddler up the stairs,

Into the bathroom,

And to the sink.

You get out the little pink toothbrush you bought

Just for this purpose

And try to scrub the crayon off her teeth.

And if you try to scrub the toddler's teeth,

Most likely she will chew on the toothbrush.

But you think "Better than my finger"

(which by the way is still throbbing.)

So you get the teeth back to their original color

Stick the toddler in her jammies

And tuck her into bed

And decide never again

To give a toddler a crayon.

Is there anything you could give him to eat that would help get the waxy crayon off? Something hard?

I AM CRACKING UP!

Definately some 21st ammo there!

Maybe try an apple - if that fails,

oh I dont know! LOL

Stay home for a few days

[Arimeh]

Kaz - and you couldn't of shown me that BEFORE I gave them to him?? lol At least he didn't bite me - I bribed him with a mirror ( he likes mirrors)

DH suggested a minty, but I don't want the bugger to try to swallow it!!

[~clover~]

I was thinking chewing gum, but wasn't gonna say it, coz its probably not the best idea!
I think an apple might be best. Make sure you take some pics for us all first!
