Just recently, our son wanted to buy his own electric toothbrush (we were in shock and denial). We did not waste time. We went to the grocery store to make some comparisons. The Philips Sonicare Kids Brush was his first choice (fun design). We were naive. We both had Sonicare toothbrushes so we bought the kids version.
We had no idea that this brush had Bluetooth capabilities and works with an online application. The application teaches children how to brush their teeth effectively. The app program keeps track of morning and nightly brush routines. Sonicare has developed a quirky animated creature (looks like a Furby). When a child turns on his toothbrush the creature starts to brush his/her own teeth. A child can see the plaque being scrubbed away. After each bushing period, the child receives a virtual gift.
We like to be frugal at our house, but this purchase has been a wonderful educational tool!
