![]() For example, a magical story about meeting "Captain Flea" and his fairy crew accompanied the ship in a bottle. The letters read like rhyming poems, and each one tells a short tale related to the treasure in the pouch. Since they'd never received a letter from the tooth fairy before, the little notes tucked into gold envelopes felt extra special. The items that most excited my kids, however, were the tiny letters that the Tooth Fairy included inside each of their golden bags. The trinkets are definitely fairy-sized (read: itty bitty) but that only served to make it especially believable that they were delivered by the Tooth Fairy herself. They enjoyed opening up their pouches and discovering what was tucked inside one contained a tiny ship in a bottle, and the other held a miniature old fashioned brass diving helmet. When they woke up and found the little gold treasure bags under their pillows, they were very intrigued and excited. While the idea behind Hold the Magic is for the same child to receive all three pouches, we figured it would work just as well for both of the kids to receive a pouch from the same themed box-and we were right. My kids are really close, so whenever one of them loses a tooth, they always leave a note for the Tooth Fairy requesting a little something for their sibling as well as a treasure for themselves. The box is unassuming in that it's not plastered all over with drawings of the Tooth Fairy, and it was small enough to tuck inside my desk drawer where I knew there was little chance of it being disturbed. My Hold the Magic order arrived quickly, and the three pouches were tucked inside a small-yet sturdy-cardboard box. I opted for the Ahoy Matey gift set, because I thought it would appeal to both my son and daughter alike-plus who isn't a sucker for a tiny ship in a bottle? They've already lost a few teeth, so they're used to getting glitter-sprayed cash and a toy or two, but I figured that would make them rather discerning testers. To be honest, I wasn't sure if my kids would be into the whole magical treasure thing. A small magnifying glass can be added to your order for an additional $9.99. How much does Hold the Magic cost?Įach set includes three gift bags for three different tooth fairy visits, and costs $29.99, plus shipping. A vial of "fairy dust" (aka glitter) is also included in each box, for parents who are more fun than I am and don't care if glitter gets all over their child's bed pillows. Packaged in three separate golden treasure pouches-enough for three Tooth Fairy visits-each bag holds a piece or two of the complete miniature play set.Īlso included in each pouch is a small letter from the Tooth Fairy herself, which is enclosed in a glittery gold envelope. Hold the Magic offers 11 different themes to choose from, varying from a Petite Princess Tea Party to a Tiny Tinkering set with miniature tools. With the tagline "Give magic, not money," the idea is to gift kids with things that are more meaningful than dollar bills, especially since the average 6-year-old is too young to appreciate cold hard cash. ![]() What is Hold the Magic?Ĭreated by a mom who wanted to leave something more, well, magical under her daughter's pillow, Hold the Magic creates small bags of Tooth Fairy treasure to tuck under a child's pillow. That's the exact idea behind Hold the Magic, a company that creates teeny tiny whimsical gifts that are the perfect thing for the Tooth Fairy to leave under a child's pillow. Setting aside how ridiculous it is that someone gave a child $100 for a crusty old tooth, wouldn't it be nice if the Tooth Fairy provided some uniformity to her gift giving? Some kids get two dollar bills sprayed with glitter, others get toys, and I've even heard that one kid got a hundred dollar bill. ![]() Now that I'm a seasoned veteran of the Tooth Fairy routine, I'm here to tell you that the hardest thing-other than staying up late enough to ensure your kids are fully asleep-is knowing what to leave under their pillow. At the time, it felt like the days of loose teeth and midnight visits from the Tooth Fairy were far in the future, but as with most things related to parenting, the time flew by and that pillow has gotten lots of use in the last few years. One of the gifts I got at my baby shower was a tooth fairy pillow.
