Sheri Recommends: My Flipper Toothbrush Holder

Check out these cute little toothbrush holders!  We were keeping the kids toothbrushes in a drawer and it was not working.  Besides the mess in the drawer, our 1yr old kept getting the brushes and either chewing on them or throwing them in the toilet!

I found these toothbrush holders at Toys R Us and I am so happy that I bought them.  They are not the cheapest things (about $4.99) but are a total answer to our problem.  The kids toothbrushes stay clean, the baby can't reach them, and the kids can use the holder for overnights!

Go to myflipperusa.com for more information.  Besides Toys R Us, the only store that I can see on the site that sells them in MN is The Container Store in Edina.

I noticed you can buy them at Target.com but they are selling for $10.99!  Urbanoutfitters.com has them for $8 & Amazon.com ranges from $6.49-$10.99.  Wow, I guess in hindsight, $4.99 at Toys R Us wasn't such a bad price.

Flipper meets every guideline for toothbrush care established by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and  the American Dental Association (ADA):  "The easiest way to protect your toothbrush is by using a toothbrush cover. Splattering water, contact with skin, and toothbrushes knocking against one another are all circumstances that contribute to the spread of bacteria."
