A dentist from Lancashire has launched a campaign called Stop the Rot to deter nurseries from serving sugary food and drink, The Daily Telegraph reported. Dentist Graham Wilding said he sees too many toddlers in his surgery with tooth decay and wants all nursery children to brush their teeth after lunch. SkyNews said parents spend £6 billion a year on toys for their children. A survey by internet bank Egg estimates the average child will accumulate toys worth £11,000 by the age of 16.
