Elf on the Shelf is a tradition for many homes during Christmas. Santa uses these adorable elves to determine who has been naughty or nice. Every day, they find new, quirky hiding spots. In this article, I’ll give your elves some new ideas. If you think your Elf on the Shelf could use a boost in excitement, look no further.
Try putting your elves where your family eats breakfast. Prop the elves up against a box of your favorite cereal, and try using some Cheerios to spell out a message. For example, encourage your family to get on the nice list. Also, it’s fun to eat a piece of cereal every time you pass.
Another idea is to turn your elves into chefs for the day. Take out a few bowls, ingredients, and utensils and put them all in your kitchen. Make a treat for your family from the elves to add some spice. Or you could make a mess, and no one will get mad at you.
A third, more artistic option, is to use a dry erase marker and write on pictures of you and your family. Draw funny things on their faces and write some messages. Put the elves in an area near the vandalized pictures with a marker for an easy way to inspire laughter.
Scatter video games around and maybe have a few out of their boxes. Put a controller in their hand and put other equipment all around. Reminder to make sure to leave the important controllers out of the elf’s grasp so you can still access your online paradise.
You can’t always take the time to have an extravagant display, so here are some less intricate ideas. You could hide them in the branches of your Christmas tree. You could put them in stockings. You could have them hang out in your bedroom. You could have them watching TV or reading books. You could put them near your pet.
Elf on the Shelf is an easy tradition that’s only limitation is your imagination, so have some fun with it!
