Give Their Baby Teeth Some Love with These Genius Toddler Toothbrushes

Teach them good habits early with these genius toddler toothbrushes

With all that comes with toddlers, it’s easy to want to skip the toothbrushing thing. We’re not judging. Toddlers will easily have you up and down and all around, all day long. The idea of trying to wrangle them and somehow manage to get a toothbrush to function effectively at the same time sounds a lot like trying to hang onto a bag of dolphins that drink Red Bull. Thankfully, there are toddler toothbrushes out there that make it all much easier.

Toddler toothbrushes are made specifically for their tiny teeth. Not only that, but they’re designed to be comfortable and fun, so they’ll quickly pick up toothbrushing as a regular part of their bedtime routine. And with options in kid-friendly colors, toddler-mouth-shaped brushes, and some of their favorite animals and characters. Here are some of our favorites. And don’t worry—we promise you’ll be glad you started them early.
