How to write it
Print small on purpose
A full letter shrunk to a few inches still reads clearly when the writing is clean.
Fold it once
Tuck it under the pillow or into a tooth pillow pocket.
Use plain paper
Thin paper folds better than card.
Keep a full-size copy for yourself
The tiny one tends to disappear.

Questions parents ask
How small should a Tooth Fairy letter be?
About the size of a playing card, or smaller, reads well and still fits under a pillow. Printing a full letter at around 40 percent size works on most printers.
How do I print a tiny letter?
Use the "Tiny fairy size" button on the letter page before printing, or set the scale to about 40 percent in your print window, then cut around it.
