Two Australian Kids Spend Tooth Fairy Money on Delivering Tissues for Elders

Two Australian Kids Spend Tooth Fairy Money on Delivering Tissues for Elders

In Queensland, Australia, Addyson (age six) and Lucy (age four), held a toy in one hand while dragging a cart in the other. While seeing empty shelves at the store, six-year-old Addyson got the idea to use her tooth fairy money to buy rolls of toilet paper for struggling pensioners. At a time when stockpiling supplies has become a norm, these two youngsters could be spotted knocking on doors of elderly neighbors, with a wooden cart piled with toilet paper and tissue boxes, asking if they would like any. One delighted woman offered the girls a bag of "fairy crystals" in return. Another man took rolls for a neighbor across the street who was unwell and couldn't go to the store.
