Elfy. Yes, this is what my five-year old has named our Elf on the Shelf. I never claimed to have the most creative kid.
Last week I was lucky enough to win an Elf on the Shelf from Life With Munchers. Elf on the Shelf is gaining in popularity in the UK but it is extremely popular in the USA. For years I have seen pictures on Facebook of these Christmas elves since most of my FB friends are American. I didn’t quite understand what the fuss is about. But now that Moozles is five, she is obsessed with all things Christmas. And she is obsessed with Elfy. How magical is must be to wake up and wonder what Elfy has said to Father Christmas the night before. And to wake up and wonder where you might find Elfy.
Moozles has found Elfy on various shelves, the radiator, our mini Christmas tree and tomorrow she will find Elfy enjoying a hearty bowl of Cheerios. Elf on the Shelf is a bit more work for me, but it’s worth it to see my daughter’s reaction to him.
Greedy little Elfy! It is worth it to see their reactions, isn’t it? Magical Thanks for joining in with #ElfTakeover
It is so lovely to see my daughter’s reaction. Lots of wonder and giggles when she sees where the elf has landed each morning.
*whispers* You know… I just don’t get the elf on the shelf thing… think I’d rather eat more pies 🙂 x
haha Can’t fault that logic. Who wouldn’t rather eat more pies?
