A Baby Time Giveaway--Tanner's Tasty Paste

I thought it would be nice to kick off this Baby Time countdown with a kid/baby giveaway!

Realizing that I have my own crew of testers, the folks at Tanner's Tasty Paste were kind enough to send me several samples of their line of very tasty kid's toothpaste to try out.

The short story is that these toothpastes were created by a pediatric dentist who is also a mom, and who understands how kids operate. The toothpaste tastes like ice cream, from chocolate, to vanilla, to BlingSicle (Orange creme), and yummy toothpaste makes kids want to brush their teeth.

I will tell you that since the toothpaste has arrived, there have been battles to see who could get to the bathroom first to get the toothpaste first. They LOVE it! The kids' bathroom even smells of vanilla ice cream, instead of like a kids' bathroom.

As exciting as the yummy flavors are, I'm a little more excited about what isn't in the toothpaste. There is no sodium lauryl sulfate, saccharin, or artificial colors or flavors. My husband is a big fan of that because he often has issues with toothpaste that do contain those ingredients. His comment was, "When are they going to make a line for adults?" But I don't see any reason why adults can't use the kid's line. I don't know much about the Xylitol it contains, but a quick wikipedia search says that it is very "tooth friendly."

At $6.00/tube, the price point is a bit higher than what I would like to be paying for toothpaste, but if you have kids that fight the teeth brushing, or you are concerned about ingredients in other toothpastes, that may be a small price to pay. My only other concern, is that it tastes so good that younger children might be tempted to try and eat the whole tube. I had that issue with my oldest when she was a toddler, with much less yummy toothpaste. After a call to poison control, we had the talk about fluoride and how it was for her teeth, not her tummy. I caught her with a tube of toothpaste a few weeks later and asked her if she had been eating it. "No. It has Florida in it!" she replied.

...Sorry, had to share my cute story. Always a good idea to keep toothpaste out of small children's reach. The Baby Bling variety is designed for young children, so don't have to worry about the Florida--I mean flouride, there.
