If you've ever visited Santa's Workshop in the North Pole you'll know that Santa has many elves helping him to prepare for Christmas. But I bet you didn't know that not all of the elves stay in the workshop all year round. Each and every year Santa sends some of his magical elves on a special assignment. To visit the homes of little boys and girls the world over, to spend time in their homes and with their families, and to report back to Santa about their behaviour in the run up to Christmas.
Santa's Elf is designed to make Christmas a magical one for your children. He's the perfect interactive tradition for families and school classes. Do you have young children who would like a visit from Santa's Magic Elf this Christmas? Then read on and find out how to bring a little Elf Magic into your home this holiday season.
This magical elf is very mischievous and gets himself into all manner of unlikely places as he carries out Santa's investigations. Your kids will also want to take him to visit friends and classmates so he needs to be sturdy. If you are creative you could make your own Magic Elf using material scraps, other wise you can pick one up from a store.
Your Magic Elf will need a name, a letter from Santa explaining the reason for his visit and a small notebook or journal in which he will write his Elf Report. The premise here is that Father Christmas has sent this little elf to visit your family to report back to Father Christmas on the behaviour of your children. Santa will return to collect the Elf on Christmas Eve and if they have been good he will leave gifts before whisking the Elf home to the North Pole.
You'll need to decide on the best time for him to arrive into your house. This could be during Thanksgiving, a couple of weeks before Christmas, or even on the day you put up the Christmas Tree. Choose a day that suits your family best. You might want to put the elf in a basket along with his letter and notebook, or hide him in the Christmas Tree. Use your imagination to introduce him to your kids with a little fan fare - he is an important guest after all!
Once the Elf is settled into your house he will need to spend the evenings carrying out his research, once the little ones are sound asleep you can hide him in cupboards or behind the sofa. Carrying out Santa's investigations is tiring work and this little elf can be known to fall asleep on the job. The kids will have to search for him in the morning to find out where he fell asleep this time.
Oh and did I mention the Elf Mischief? Yes, he has a mischievous streak and is known to take all of the pots and pans out of the kitchen cupboards, hide the remote control for the television and leave candies in coat pockets -- all while the kids are fast asleep!
Come December 24 your visiting elf will need to be packed and ready for his trip home to the North Pole. Make sure you bundle him up warm with his Elf Report and place him near the chimney or window so that he can let Santa into the house. Your children might want to send him home with a letter that they have written to Santa. They'll probably want to tell him all about the mischief that the elf got up to, how much they enjoyed his visit, and of course extend an invitation for next Christmas!
