The Elf on the Shelf – A Christmas Tradition
The Elf on the Shelf, a Christmas Tradition
Every child’s favorite time of year is here once again and do you know what that means? It’s time for the Elf on the Shelf! Elf on a what you say?
The Elf on the Shelf Story
This cute little character is an elf who is designed to sit on your shelf in your home. Why you say? Because that’s what elves do of course! Just kidding. Because the elf is magical, and every night during the month of December, while the children in the house are sleeping he appears and moves from his spot on the shelf to somewhere else in the house. Each morning when your children wake up they must go looking for the elf.
Why are they looking for this little elf on the shelf? Because the elf visits every evening to make sure your children are being good. How else do you think Santa Claus knows who to put on his Naughty and Nice List?
The Elf on the Shelf Gift Set
The Elf on the Shelf Gift Set comes in either a light-skinned or a dark-skinned elf. You can choose a girl elf or a boy elf.
How do you acquire one of these little elves? You have to adopt them. Until then they are hibernating waiting for that special family to find them. Once you buy the Elf on the Shelf gift set and read the book with your children, your elf comes alive and he’s ready to be adopted.
During the online adoption process you must give your elf a special name. Once adoption is complete your elf is imbued with the magic of Christmas and is ready to add that magic to your home this holiday season.
This can become an annual tradition that the whole family can excitedly anticipate and enjoy.
And remember, why is it do you think you need to buy this Elf on the Shelf gift set to add to your already growing list of Holiday To-Do items?
Because when the neighbor child comes up to your child and starts talking about their elf, the next question to you will be “Why don’t WE have a magical elf Mommy (or Daddy)?”
