We've never really joined in with Christmas traditions but last year we joined in with Christmas Eve boxes and I really wanted to join in with Elf On The Shelf but I was too late as it was already mid December when I knew about it. I made a promise that I would buy one for this year - and I did! Our little Elf On The Shelf arrived last week and I got super excited. My partner was a bit confused but once I told him I think he got a little excited to help the Elf get to it's silly and funny tricks! The Elf is in the cupboard hiding and can't wait to meet the girls on the 1st of December!
There are 25 days in December until Christmas so I have been looking around on the internet - Pinterest a bit more for ideas for Elf on the shelf to do and it's getting me super excited. I can't wait! I've gathered a few up ideas for you all to have some inspiration!
You can see a lot more ideas over on Pinterest
This looks so much fun and I think I also will have a go this year. Thank you for sharing. I really want to make more of an effort this year for my little poppets. I was very depressed last year and could barely manage to wrap presents. Pinterest has been getting me very excited this year. I will buy our elf on the shelf today :) eek xxx #sharewithme
ReplyDeleteWe did a partial attempt at Elf on the Shelf last year but my boys were being really naughty so Elfie went away and didn't come back halfway through! Haha. I'll hopefully make a more thorough attempt this year!

Haha love the photos and idea #thelist X
ReplyDeleteSome great ideas! #Thelist
ReplyDeleteI've been doing the elf on the shelf for 3 years, we were using an elf from the build a bear workshop which was quite large and this year I eventually bought the REAL elf. Then a week later my 7 year old found out Santa wasn't real lol. Anyway it's so much fun the amount of things you can do with it my son LOVED it, he still wants it again this year even though he knows it's me who does it but I'm planning something else with it instead. I also have an 8 month old who I plan to start maybe next year with the elf, I look forward to seeing what you get up to with yours
