This is the salt being poured on top of the tooth so you can't see any of it. Then a cup goes on top. In the morning both tooth and salt are gone! Hey presto!

Obviously it's all for my benefit.

He lost two on holiday and we only came back with one that has been on the kitchen table for two weeks. I was preparing the plate and salt when I put it down somewhere.

So we used a bit of old popcorn from Saturday (which he knew about) and an old tooth of his sister's (I chose not to tell him that bit).

The big one went on the first of several missions to prove that she's ready for a solo long haul trip to her aunt next year. The wee one was zonked.
