If it’s a weekend morning for us, it probably includes a breakfast with Cinnamon Rolls. We love them! We had fun with these cinnamon rolls turning them into Christmas trees with green food coloring, some Christmas sprinkles and and Twizzlers Pull and Peel candy.  This recipe is so easy only requiring a few additional touches to get your final Christmas Food Craft – we think the kids will love it! Enjoy.

Ingredients:

Supplies:

  • Parchment paper
  • Toothpick
  • Knife for frosting
  • Baking pan

  4. Repeat step 3 with each piece of dough, making 4 dough snakes.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD

Online you can find ENDLESS Elf on the Shelf Accessories, Books, Games and Toys.
