The Tooth Fairy’s Secret Workshop

Client: Wiggly Tooth Workshop

What does the Tooth Fairy actually do with all those teeth?

That question sparked The Tooth Fairy’s Secret Workshop, a new animated short film created by Gerard Murphy in collaboration with FableVision and New York Times bestselling author and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds.

At the heart of the project is a simple but powerful idea: children’s teeth hold the qualities they have been growing since birth. Creativity. Kindness. Courage. Curiosity. Wonder. The Tooth Fairy quietly gathers those qualities and uses them to help keep the world balanced in small but meaningful ways.

The film follows Arlo, a curious young boy who loses a tooth and asks a question most adults struggle to answer. His search for the truth leads him to CeCe, a resourceful Tooth Fairy, inventor, and tinkerer who introduces him to her hidden workshop above the clouds. There, Arlo discovers that even the smallest moments of childhood can have a larger purpose.Behind CeCe’s workshop is a broader universe built around a shared mission: helping children recognize the qualities growing inside themselves and understand how those qualities can help make the world a little brighter.

The Tooth Fairy’s Secret Workshop is part of the growing Wiggly Tooth Workshop universe, which includes stories, activities, coloring pages, educational resources, and the ToothSafe, a companion product inspired by the film.
