My nephew refuses to put his tooth under his pillow in case the fairy burns him with her wand.

When I lost my first tooth, I was sure it was because of what my mother used to say -- if we didn't take good care of our teeth, they'd fall out.

It took some convincing from my brother before I told anyone else and would let the Tooth Fairy come get it.

when i was little i believed leprechauns were real and I would search for them in the grass. I even to a glass jar with me to put them in.

When i was really little, my mum told me that when i lost my teeth, the tooth fairy took them away, gave my a lolli and she meltedthem down to make milk!
THat was where my milk with my cereal came from. When i knew milk came from cows, it was turned to sugar! That was why dipping your finger in sugar made your teeth hurt, because you were rubbing teeth on teeth!

The Tooth.

I used to believe the tooth fairy was real until I saw my mum creeping around in the bathroom one night. We left our tooth is a glass of water in the bathroom and the 'toothfairy' would leave us a silver coin.

I grew up with snowy winters and I believed for some reason that in winter the "Little People" needed shelter. Consequently, I would make little hollows along the snowbanks for them to get out of the cold. Occasionally I would make more elaborate ones.

It never occurred to me to check to see if they had been used, or where the "Little People" stayed in summer. In fact, I don't recall ever thinking about them at all if there wasn't snow on the ground.

not my belief, but when I was little, I had a friend who believed the tooth fairy was real because he had seen her. His parents had a friend who had long, really curly blond hair and who was really tiny, and she lived sort of far away so he had never met her. She was in town when he lost his first tooth and they devised a plan. They found a really flowy, gauzy blue dress, and brushed her hair so it was really fluffy and they had her climb in his window in the night to get his tooth. She made sure to make noise so that he would wake up and see her, and I swear, he was in junior high or high school before he was finally convinced that the tooth fairy wasn't real.

When I was little I believed that bubbles were fairy eggs, and that when they burst, that was a fairy being born. I was still very against popping them, though, because the longer a bubble could float without bursting, the stronger the fairy would be. Bubbles would also not pop until the fairy was ready to be born, and it wasn't fair to rush the fairies.

I used to believe that if i left white lego bricks under my pillow the tooth fairy would be tricked and I'd be rich! Suprisingly, the white lego bricks vanished but i never got any money. They didn't return to my lego box. I still don't know where they are to this day.

I believed that fireflies were fairies. This belief became even more true for me after watching Ferngully, where all the fairies when they flew, left behind a colored glow. On top of that I never say a firefly up close so I never knew it was a bug until many years afterwards. So I stuck to my story for a good few years!

I accidently had my brother terrified of the tooth fairy because I told him that the tooth fairy came in and took your teeth and left money for them. So he believed that some big macho looking guy in a tutu with a wand would knock your teeth out and pay cash for them. He slept face down for a few years because of that.

Sinnful

In the first grade during St. Patrick's Day, my teacher put fake green footprints on the ground and told us that a leprechaun came in our classroom overnight. We even set up a leprechaun trap. I was so nervous because I actually believe that we were going to see a live leprechaun!

It's hard to believe that I was seven years old when I believed this and not younger :p.

That the tooth fairy drove around in her green Volks Wagon Collecting teeth from all the children.

When I was little, I lost a tooth, I mean really lost it. I could not find it anywhere and I was SO upset because then I thought I wouldn't get any money from the Tooth fairy. So I had my aunt help me write a note to the tooth fairy explaining to him/her that I was REALLY sorry about losing the tooth that I've been a good girl and really wanted money. Well, it must have worked because the next morning there was a dollar under my pillow, lol. I used to think the Tooth fairy looked like Tinkerbell from Peter Pan, LMAO!

i believe in the tooth fairy so much that i make paper bags for her!

I used to beleive that a mermaid would be singing to you when u listned to a shell.

I was determined to prove the tooth fairy didn't exist. I figured my mistake was that I always *told* my parents when I lost a tooth and exactly when I put it under my pillow, so for the next 3 or 4 lost/pulled teeth I didn't say a word. I just kept them in a plastic Easter egg and thought when the time was right I'll put them under my pillow without telling anyone and see if I get money. Apparently that time never came. If anyone finds and orange Easter egg with a couple broken baby teeth in it, lemme know.

I used to believe I had a personal pixie that used to follow me around stealing things of mine that I had on me at the time and relocating them. This would explain why I would always find them in weird places. Actually, let's be honest, I still believe this!!

I thought that if I drew a tiny door on a wall and knock on it three times, that i would be able to go to a land of faries and mythical creatures.
