Tooth Fairy Bubble Pops
The tooth fairy bubble may finally be coming to an end.
According to Visa's annual Tooth Fairy survey, American children are receiving an average of $3.19 per lost tooth this year, a decrease of 24 cents from last year. Kids can expect to receive approximately $64 on the road to adult teeth, down from $74 only two years ago. 2015 marks the second year in a row that the Tooth Fairy has left less under pillows.
"The Tooth Fairy is finally fluttering back to earth," said Nat Sillin, Visa's director of global financial education. "No matter how much is left under the pillow, a visit from the Tooth Fairy is an ideal opportunity to talk with children about the importance of saving and budgeting."
