Menu for 5/15/15-5/21/15

I'm still busy furiously crocheting wedding gifts so I'll try to make this quick.

Bailey's first dentist appointment is tomorrow. I know, we're a little behind for a first dentist appointment, but I know she will be one of those kids who fights the dentist and won't let them even see her teeth. How do I know this? Well, because I can't even get her to sit on the exam table at the doctor's office to let them look in her ears or eyes or mouth. I just have this feeling that she won't even sit in the chair at the dentist.

How do you prepare a child for the dentist? The very first episode of Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood is all about preparing a child for school and a check-up at the doctor so I went with a similar prep for Bailey's dentist appointment. I told her all about the chair she will sit in. I described how the dentist will wear gloves and probably a mask over her mouth and nose. I drew a picture of the little mirror and hook she will use to examine her teeth and explained that she needs to open her mouth when the dentist tells her to. I don't know how much of it sunk in but hopefully tomorrow won't be a battle now that she knows a little more of what to expect.
