My daughter lost her first tooth at age six. The next morning, I went in to wake her up and she found her $5 under the pillow, at which point she looked me directly in the eyes and asked, “Mom, are you the tooth fairy?” Uhhh….. I think I gave her the standard cop-out parental response (“What do you think?”) but the cat was out of the bag.

our tooth fairy only leaves £1, and doesn't require an envelope 😅
The first one is usually worth more. In an odd addendum, my kids are in their 20s and my wife found a "serial killer" amount of baby teeth is a dresser drawer. We're not sure what to do with them.
Update: Found the missing tooth this morning (before she noticed).
£2 for first tooth and £1 after is the plan here.
When I was a kid, the tooth fairy gave a dime per tooth. My nephew gets $200. I think £2 is more than fair!
