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.

Christmas Fun Jar

DIY Christmas Fun Jar Activity - Christmas Bucket List Ideas Printable

I don’t know about you, but having all the kids home for Christmas is usually fun for us. We get to do lots of Christmas activities, make crafts, and bake yummy treats. However, what happens when the kids start to get antsy from being home?

If the weather is bad, things can be even worse. Thankfully we have shared lots of entertaining activities on the blog to keep your little ones busy.

And today is a new activity I want to share: the Christmas Fun Jar! This is literally a jar bursting with holiday fun. Kind of like  Christmas family bucket list, only in a jar!

DIY Christmas Fun Jar with Christmas Bucket List Ideas Printable

Example activities that will be inside the jar include:

  • Write a letter to Santa
  • Make your own Christmas cards
  • Bake a batch of Christmas cookies
  • Read a Christmas book
  • Build a gingerbread house
  • Decorate your own ugly Christmas sweater
  • Have a snowball fight
  • Go sledding
  • Have a holiday scavenger hunt
  • Make paper snowflakes
  • Do a random act of kindness
  • Drink some eggnog
  • Learn about a new Christmas tradition

Whenever you hear that your kids are bored, just have them pull out a popsicle stick from the jar. The idea on the stick will keep them entertained for a while!

Does your elf measure up? Take fun to new heights with this Elf on a Shelf Growth Charts. In addition to measuring your elf doll, you could also have a whole line of characters against the wall. Elf pets, toy characters, and more. Maybe make a silly line and label something like “daddy” and have the line be really low to the ground. Your kids might find that really silly.

Tip: If you do not want to color on your wall, use washi table and label the line by writing on the top. Pencil should easily come off the wall with Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

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.
