Celebrate #Smilestones with Orajel

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Orajel Kids.

Having an almost three year old, I know what it’s like going through the trials and tribulations of teaching your little one about oral hygiene. Kaylee is finally starting to brush on her own and although she enjoys doing it by herself, she sometimes needs some motivation and encouragement. This is where Orajel Kids‘ line of oral care products comes into play. Orajel Kids has products for all stages of tooth-brushing which is great for us parents, and fun characters which are great for the kids. I know Kaylee is always super excited to brush with her Bubble Guppies toothbrush and toothpaste. It really gets her excited to do a task that most kids and adults don’t really get excited for. 

Since Kaylee is out of her training stage and is now brushing on her own, I was excited for her to try Orajel’s Anticavity Flouride Toothpaste (Fin-tastic Fruit flavored) and Orajel’s Soft toothbrush, which is designed specifically for ages 2 and up. She loves her new toothbrush and toothpaste because she absolutely loves the Bubble Guppies. Having her new toothbrush and toothpaste motivate her even more brush all on her own. We’ve tried giving her plain toothbrushes and even toothbrushes with animal characters, but she never responded as well to them as she does to these characters that she knows and loves. As a mom, I like that she identifies with the characters but I also like how the toothbrush is designed. I love that it has a grip that is great for her little hands and has elongated bristles for those hard-to-reach places. I also really love that the colored bristles shows her where to put the toothpaste.

So whether your child is teething, just learning how to brush, or starting to brush on their own, Orajel has products to help you at every step of your child’s development. Besides the products that I introduced to Kaylee, Orajel also offers Baby Orajel Naturals in both tablet and gel form for teething pain relief, Tooth & Gum Cleanser for children from 3 months to 24 months with an extra soft brush for children just starting to brush, and Flouride-Free Training Toothpaste for those that are in training. 

Now how would you like to celebrate your child’s #Smilestones and enter into a photo contest? Orajel is hosting a Smilestones Photo Contest to celebrate your child’s smiling milestones or “Smilestones.” All you have to do is submit a photo of your favorite Smilestone for a chance to win the grand prize of a trip for a family of four to Beaches Resorts by Sandals. The contest will run from now until June 18. After the contest is over, voting will take place from June 30 to July 11. I hope you enter the contest and even if you don’t I do hope you vote!

I would love to know what your favorite Smilestone is! Leave a comment and tell me what stage your little one is in or which one you loved the best!
