Tooth fairy and mice

Last Friday, I had a really good fun conversation with my language partner. We talked about teeth, the tooth fairy and mice.
When I was a child, I used to throw my broken teeth on the top of the house and speak a short poem which is sort of "mouse, mouse, give me a new tooth, I'll give you this old tooth". Sounds strange huh? The Adults always talk to tell their kids that if they have broken teeth and then throw it up on the top of the house, so mice might eat that one and kids will have grow new teeth quite quickly. But kids have to call the mice. And I used to do that until I was 10, so silly.
My language partner also told me about his childhood. When he was a boy, he just got 2 pences for each broken teeth from the tooth fairy, but now his sons have 1 pound and 2 pences. The tooth fairy is a really kind person. She took the teeth but and she left money and but the mice didn't do that haha.
I wonder if you're from any countries, what did you do with your broken teeth when you were a child? --> I wonder, depending which country you live in, what did you do with your baby teeth when you were a child?
Thanks for reading and correcting!

- We call them baby teeth in Canada. We don't call them broken teeth because they haven't broken, they've just fallen off. =] You have to put your old tooth under the pillow to get money from the tooth fairy. My mom used to give me a loonie or a toonie. I'd wake up and the coin would be under or inside the pillow. I would probably buy candy with it. I really loved candy.
