    And how do I start it if they should? Kids are 2 and 4.

    No children's teeth are a different shape to adults, brushing is sufficient. It's difficult enough to get my child to brush properly, flossing would be far too hard.

    kids teeth are generally spaced quite nicely so the contacts are easier to get at with brushing...
