4 Homemade Kids Toothpaste Recipes

By Holly Campbell

My family relocated to Shanghai about twelve years ago. During that time, it wasn't easy to find good quality children toothpastes for my 3 year old twins. So I decided to make homemade kids toothpaste. I tried several recipes before I finally got it right to suit my kids' taste.

If you want to avoid harmful additives used in many kids toothpaste, these homemade toothpaste for kids are really useful. And, they're incredibly cheap to make. You can find all the ingredients in most grocery stores, locally or online.
