Tie some candy canes together to make a sled and then tie them to the banister on the stairs.
If you have a staircase, this one is super easy. This one was much harder to find because it was on the third floor of the house, so the girls really had to search to find it. The elves set up a tea party with all of the princesses. My niece was over so we had 2 elves that night. I ordered a box of self-adhesive googly eyes and put eyes on all of our fruit in our fruit basket. Just put a bunch of bows and have your elf climb up. We did it on the fridge because I was worried it might mess up my paint. Get some holiday gift wrapping bows and create a “rock climbing” wall. I probably should have picked a toy she didn’t like as much. She wasn’t so sure about this one because she wanted her Alien back. Our elf got my daughter favorite stuffed animal and stuck him in a glass jar on our shelves in the kitchen.
I chose her dinosaurs and a dinosaur book to match. Pick a book and any toys and have the elf read to them. Leave the elf sitting on the roll so they know who is responsible. Pick a space and make a toilet paper mess.
This is probably the one that’s taken the longest to set up but she loved it. Flip a coffee cup to seat the elf, and add a toothpick with mini marshmallows and set them over a candle so your elf is making S’mores. She spent the entire day telling everyone how naughty her elf Trixie is. Super simple and she thought it was hilarious. Our elf, Trixie, got my daughters panties and hung them on the Christmas tree as ornaments then hid in the tree as well. If you want to see our daily updates, check me out on Instagram I always share our elf on my stories. The best part is they only take a couple minutes (at most) to set up. Here are some fun ideas that have brought a lot of joy and Christmas magic to our home. Trixie (the name my daughter selected for our elf) is naughty but she keeps it simple, because this mommy needs her sleep. Have some fun with your Elf this year – we can all use a little more laughter right now.This is my first year having an Elf on the Shelf and I was worried my daughter wouldn’t really understand it yet because she’s only 3 and doesn’t go to school… oh boy, was I wrong! She loves her Elf so much and truly enjoys finding her everyday. This morning I laughed so hard I spit my coffee out when Tom Mentzer posted a picture of himself as the Elf on the shelf. My first December elf today was bacon wrapped and in the cast iron skillet for John – just a little sizzle to get him moving on this cold morning. Some 2020 themes I am thinking of – a mask of course, Elfie in a dumpster fire, evil Zoom elf and home school frazzled parent elf. My daughter alerted me that this year they are selling clothing for the Elves – when I Googled it, one of the questions was “Can Elf on the shelf wear Barbie clothes?” My thoughts are now rampant as to what we will do with the Elf this year. Many hilarious scenes ensued – one night they even got Teddy lit on a bottle of wine. Last year, Elf’s girlfriend Santa Baby came to live with John and I. He was roasted, microwaved and frozen in a block of ice. We lowered him on fishing wire with a tiny set of toy binoculars to the floors below, so he could spy on the other loft dwellers. Rieger Gin, with frost forming on his little body. Many times, we woke up to Elfie sprawled face down on the balcony wrapped around a bottle of J. My favorite time with Elf was when Amy and I lived in the Crossroads. Our little Elf can get himself into quite a few pickles.įrom obnoxious pranks to inappropriate scenarios, that little elf has been put into many, many compromising positions. The McDaniel tradition is to think up a million ways to entertain ourselves by putting the elf in situations that are something less than PG. When Christmas time rolls around, honestly the only way to survive it at our house is to have fun with it. Each night, the elf flies back to the North Pole to report back to Santa, and then returns back to the home they came from. As adults, we would all take turns every night putting the poor elf in many hilarious positions to surprise each other in the morning.Īccording to the book, Elf on the Shelf by Carol Aebersold, Santa sends an elf to each house to be his eyes and ears to determine who is naughty and who is nice. My children (and I) did not discover Elf on the Shelf until they were in their twenties.
