Fighting cavities will never be more fun.
A ‘Fight the Toothbugs Carnival’ will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 9, at the office of Smiles 4 Kids, soon to be renamed Valley Pediatric Dentistry.
It’s dentist Ryan Nielson’s way of getting kids jazzed about the fact that cavities are totally preventable.
The carnival, at 317 S. River St. in Hailey, will feature crafts and carnival games teaching facts about teeth and giveaways, including toys and electric toothbrushes. The first 50 families will receive a copy of “Superbug Doug,” a children’s book about brushing teeth.
And everyone can make their own toothbugs to take home as a reminder to brush.
Lunch and refreshments will be served.
