My daughter is about to loose her first tooth. When I was a kid it was about 50 cents (or whatever my dad had in his pocket). I was thinking about $1 to $2 was plenty considering she's only five and usually has more money on her than I do when we go out. I've asked other parents, and they also want to know what the going rate is these days. We don't want to explain why their friend's tooth is worth more than their's. Kindergarten kids talk.
