Fantasy holds a special place in the hearts of everyone, be it adults or children. The legend of the tooth fairy recounts the tale of a magical fairy who awards the children for the teeth that have fallen off. So every time your tooth broke off, you would place it under the pillow and lo and behold! the next morning you would be awarded with money and little treats. Of course sometimes the kind fairy would allow your parents to keep the tooth while rewarding you as well. This magical fairy also provides the inspiration for a very beautiful Halloween costume for kids and equally hilariously funny costume ideas for adults.
