Elf on the Shelf Antic Ideas

I’m sure I’m not the only one who has woken up and realised far too late that their Elf On The Shelf is still shelf bound from two nights ago. I’ve put together some excuses that work very well when you deal with little, sad faces who are worried that the Elf hasn’t been back to the North Pole!

The Elf on the Shelf is a fun tradition to do with your kids through December. It’s a little bit of magic that fills our home with laughter every Christmas. My 2017 Elf Planner is filled with 1 month of Elf on the Shelf antic ideas + a list of over 50 more ideas I have used throughout the years, 30+ notes from Santa and Elf to be left alongside Elf each night, editable (you can add your child’s name) letters from Santa and Elf, official warning letter from Santa, an Elf Report, pages to help improve and acknowledge good and bad behaviours and more.

Soon Elf on the Shelf will arrive into many homes. Elf is really mischievous while the kids are sleeping, turning milk green, spilling cereal over the bench or one of my favourites is writing on lipstick that the bathroom is messy. The kids have so much fun finding him each morning. Here are some of the antic ideas I have shared over the past few years.
