Families can now use SmileScan™, a free AI-powered oral health scan offered by Dentistry.One, to identify potential areas of concern and receive an overall oral health score
Dentistry.One, a virtual-first dental care solution, today announced a new partnership with America’s ToothFairy, a nonprofit dedicated to improving access to dental care and oral health resources for children in need.
Through the partnership, families can use Dentistry.One’s SmileScan™, an AI-powered oral health scan that reviews photos of the teeth and gums and delivers a clear report in minutes. The report highlights areas of concern and flags common issues such as tartar buildup, gum inflammation, and gum recession.
America’s ToothFairy works with nonprofit, safety-net dental clinics and community partners nationwide to connect children to dental care. The nonprofit supports underserved communities through a focus on access, prevention, and education, including funding, oral care products, equipment, and free resources for Dental Resource Program member clinics and other community programs that serve children in need.
“For many families, accessing dental care isn’t always easy,” said Brant Herman, Founder and CEO of Dentistry.One and MouthWatch. “Provider availability, differences in Medicaid participation, cost pressures, and transportation challenges can all play a role. SmileScan helps flag potential issues early and gives families a clear next step—whether that’s connecting with a dentist online or getting help finding and booking care nearby—so kids can get the right care sooner, when it can make the biggest difference.”
When virtual care is needed, a Dentistry.One dentist is available. When in-person treatment is required, care coordinators help families find and book nearby, in-network dental providers.
“This partnership helps families move from concern to care with less delay,” said Jill Malmgren, executive director at America’s ToothFairy. “By sharing SmileScan and Dentistry.One’s virtual services, we are giving families, especially those facing barriers to care, easier access and a faster path to preventive and restorative dental care for their children.”

🥣 Meet OHME! — The Brand Bringing Joy (and Crunch) Back to Healthy Snacking
If the last few years taught me anything, it’s that health starts with the little daily choices — what we eat, how we move, and the small moments of joy we create along the way. That’s exactly what I felt when I first learned about OHME!, a vibrant, feel-good brand that’s reimagining what “healthy snacking” looks like.
Founded by Han and Jenny, two friends who—like many of us—found themselves rethinking their wellness routines during the pandemic, OHME! started with a simple mission: to make breakfast and snack time something you actually look forward to again. Their story began with morning oatmeal bowls — that humble, comforting staple — and a craving to make them more exciting, more colorful, and frankly, more fun.
Then came the “aha” moment: freeze-dried fruit toppings. Real fruit, no added sugar, preserved at peak freshness with 95% of the nutrients intact. Crunchy, vibrant, and naturally sweet — like nature’s candy, only smarter. That discovery became the heartbeat of OHME!, inspiring a line of wholesome snacks and toppers that feel playful yet intentional.
But what makes OHME! stand out isn’t just the taste — it’s their mindset. They’re not trying to sell a “perfect health” image. They’re sharing a real journey. And that honesty shows up everywhere, from their transparency about packaging challenges to their active environmental commitments.
Their partnership with CleanHub is one of those things that makes you pause — in a good way. For every bag sold, OHME! helps remove plastic waste from the environment, while continuing to work toward more sustainable materials. They’ve already planted over 2,000 trees in Kenya, offset nearly 900 tonnes of carbon, and now source 75% of their raw materials from certified sustainable farms.
They’re proving that sustainability isn’t a finish line — it’s a path we walk, one decision at a time.
There’s also a kind of soul behind OHME! that feels refreshing in today’s wellness world. Their tone is fun, unpretentious, and full of personality — they don’t guilt you into healthy eating; they invite you into it. The kind of brand that reminds us food can be nutritious and joyful — crunchy, colorful, and downright snackalicious (their word, and honestly, I love it).
If you’re someone who wants to eat cleaner without overcomplicating it, or if you’re just looking to make breakfast a little more exciting — OHME! fits right into that space between wellness and delight. It’s thoughtful. It’s real. And it just might make you fall back in love with your morning bowl again.
And honestly, they’re not just great for us grown-ups. These snacks are perfect for kids too — real ingredients, no weird stuff, and the kind of crunch that makes little hands reach back for more. Healthy, happy snacking all around. 🌈

Why I’m Loving KiGO Sunglasses for Little Ones (and Why You’ll Want to Grab a Pair This Halloween!)
As a mom to an 11-month-old baby boy, I’ve learned that every new stage of childhood comes with its own surprises — and needs. Teething, crawling, first steps… and apparently, sunglasses! I’ll admit, I used to wonder: do babies really need sunglasses? I mean, they’re cute — but necessary?
Turns out, yes. Very much yes.
According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, infants and children’s eyes are more sensitive to sunlight because their lenses are more transparent, letting in more UV rays. Hats help a bit, but they only block about half of UV exposure. That’s why real sun protection starts with proper sunglasses — ones made for kids, not just “mini versions” of adult frames.
That’s how I found KiGO, a children’s eyewear brand born right here in sunny California — where bright sunshine and beach days never really end. KiGO stands for KIDS GO, and I love that idea. It’s all about letting kids explore, discover, and shine — safely and stylishly.What really caught my attention is how thoughtfully designed their sunglasses are. KiGO doesn’t just shrink adult styles — they actually create age-specific designs for every stage, from newborns to pre-teens. The fit, comfort, and flexibility are tailored for how little faces grow. The materials are lightweight, durable, and eco-friendly (because we know babies love to bend, chew, and test everything!).
And yes, they’re 100% UVA/UVB protective — which gives me peace of mind every time we head out for a stroller walk or beach morning.
Another thing I love: the brand’s California vibe — modern, playful, yet practical. It feels like a perfect mix of fun and function. KiGO believes every child deserves to feel as cool as an adult — and honestly, they do look ridiculously cute in those tiny shades.
🎃 Halloween Special!
If you’ve been thinking about trying KiGO, now’s the time — they’re running a Halloween campaign starting October 21st with 25% off. Perfect for parents who love both safety and a good deal. (Because who doesn’t?)So this season, while you’re picking out costumes and planning trick-or-treat adventures, maybe add a pair of KiGO sunglasses to your list. After all — protection from the sun is the kind of treat your child’s eyes will thank you for later.

Stories That Talk Back: First AI-Copilots Marketplace for Parents and Kids
NORWICH, England, Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Artificial intelligence startup Tale Craft announced the official launch of the first marketplace for AI voice-callable companions for kids. Each companion, called a “Hero,” is rooted in stories generated by parents or downloaded from the community-built marketplace. Heroes include a WhatsApp parent channel designed to share guidance and instruction in real time. Marketplace bundles also include themed songs, coloring books, and audiobooks—all of which parents can also generate themselves in the app.
One of the platform’s most distinctive features is its voice engine, powered by industry leader ElevenLabs. The Tale Craft library offers nearly 100 voices smart-matched to characters—cowboys, princesses, goblins, fairies—you name it, it’s there. The library continues to grow every week.
Tale Craft brings stories to life with interactive voice calls from characters – over 120 voices available for kids’ favorite heroes. “Tale Craft was never built to replace human contact,” said Patrick, founder of Tale Craft. “Goal is to help parents by adding another tool they can use in times of need. It can give a 10–15 minute breather when it’s needed most—a luxury of time forgotten by many of us. Parents I’ve spoken with have all experienced this first-hand in some form: the ‘no, I won’t’ days, the middle-of-the-fruit-aisle tantrum. It’s all okay, and kids grow out of it, but the struggle to get past it is real—and that’s what having a Hero in family life can help with. The idea is simple: when they don’t listen to you, whisper in their ear as Captain Tortugo or Dan the Friendly Firefighting Tiger. Heroes carry the special authority of the story they come from—one you can share together in the evening or listen to as an audiobook on especially difficult days. Most of all, kids will ask to talk to Heroes, so a reward system suggests itself. The limits are your prerogative—you know your child best.”
The WhatsApp parenting channel is not the only way to guide Heroes. For each of them, parents can upload knowledge (e.g., breathing techniques, routines, or even the names of favourite toys) that Heroes naturally weave into conversations.
The company has rolled out its services in three-tiered membership plans: Explorer, Parent, and Professional. The Explorer plan—priced at less than half the cost of a cup of coffee—offers a way to try every feature before committing to a more comprehensive plan.
Tale Craft has implemented comprehensive guardrails across its AI platform. Every Story and Hero is configured for a specific age band, ensuring developmentally appropriate content. Each Hero speaks in age-appropriate language—tone, vocabulary, and topics stay within strict guidelines. For the youngest audiences, stories are language-gated: Heroes use simple words, short sentences, and frequent repetition to support understanding and learning.
Tale Craft’s content generation is built on a multi-step agentic framework that ensures consistency across stories, illustrations, and plot—no easy feat, and one that took months of refinement to get right. This advanced foundation goes far beyond simple AI applications, making Heroes—rooted in their stories—deeply believable, richly engaging, and unlike anything children have experienced before.
“I built Tale Craft as a parent, for parents. My hope is simple: to give families a bit more comfort and control in the difficult moments we all face.”
