A fairy good idea

Cast your mind back to January (or simply click this link) and you’ll remember how a little girl called Aine won the Argos ‘Toy of the Future’ competition.

Aine’s creation, Tilly the Tooth Fairy, is now on sale in the Argos Christmas Gift Guide, priced around £7.99. Tilly is designed to help children who have lost a tooth. A pouch in the doll’s dress is just the right size for placing a tooth, before putting it under the pillow for the real tooth fairy.

“Tilly the Tooth Fairy is a brilliant idea, and Aine has done exceptionally well to beat the tough competition that she faced,” said Argos’ Ian Chaplin. “The tooth fairy is an important part of the early childhood experience, even grown-ups can remember losing their first tooth and the magic of finding money under their pillow. We’re excited about making Aine’s tooth fairy doll part of the Argos toy range!”
