Funny Bad Milk Elf idea

If you love Elf on the Shelf pranks, we have good news. It’s quick and easy to pull this Scout Elf on a Shelf milk idea together.

Let’s get ready to turn that sour milk into a bad guy…

Supplies

• The Elf on the Shelf Doll
• Milk
• Winter Hat
• Fabric
• Permanent markers
• Cardstock or paper (this is the best cardstock which is perfect for your Elf printables)

Instructions

This idea is really quick and easy to implement. First on paper, write the note “help us! The milk has gone bad.” Alternatively, you can use a few Elf on the Shelf jokes about milk (see above.)

Next, use a permeant marker to draw a funny bad face on the milk. You can copy ours. We were thinking ugly jack-o-lantern type look.

Insert your milk on the refrigerator shelf. Wrap fabric around the galloon jug to look like clothing. Then insert a cap for a milk jug hat.

Add your note.

Next tie up your Elf on the Shelf doll(s) to look like the milk did something naughty to Elf on the Shelf.

You can add washi tape or masking tape to cover the elves mouth.

Insert your elfs in the fridge and you’re done.

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.
