Today's Featured Event is International Tooth Fairy Day

The first known accounts of the idea of a Tooth Fairy originated in Arabia in the 1300s. To this day in Islamic countries parents continue to toss loss teeth in the air to show God, a practice dating well before the advent of Islam. However, the tradition of paying children for teeth (or rewarding children for such) is seen in the Viking culture as early as the 7th Century.

During the Middle Ages, several myths surrounded the loss of teeth in Europe, which was deeply superstitious. It was at this time that children began leaving them under their pillow for a prize and parents often left a trail of fairy dust for the children to find in the morning.

The Tooth Fairy is truly an international myth that borrows from traditions across the world. No single culture is responsible for the myth. It grew with the trade routes throughout the world.
