Note to Parents: I tell a personal story from my childhood about my parents leaving a prize under my pillow after I lost my first tooth. I honestly forgot about the Tooth Fairy when making this episode (and the Tooth Fairy is not mentioned at all) but if your family enjoys the Tooth Fairy tradition, this may invite questions.

Why do your teeth start falling out when you're a kid? In today's episode of Curious Kids Every Day, we talk all about baby teeth, adult teeth, and how your growing mouth knows just when it's time to make the switch.
