How to get a three year old to brush his teeth! ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be a good example: Make brushing your teeth an activity you do together. Children love to model their behavior after their parents. If you make it an event they look forward to, versus a chore they have to do they are more likely to become invested in it.
