How to create Superhero Elf on the Shelf idea
Its not physically complicated to make a DIY Superhero Elf on the Shelf idea however it does require some creativity – so if you don’t have it, move down to places to buy superhero costumes or download Elf on the Shelf Superhero printables.
First start with the city. Create rectangles of black construction paper. These will be our buildings.
Next, use yellow construction paper to create small squares. These will be your building’s windows reflecting light in the night sky. Glue your windows on the black rectangles.
Layer your cityscape on to a surface area. This can be a wall, window, or (as we did) a chalk board. Your night cityline is done.
Next plan your super hero. You can use Batman, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, or other Marvel superheroes and DC characters.
Create a cape for your superhero. A triangle will do, have extra room at the top of your triangle to wrap around your Superhero Elf’s neck. Tape can connect your cape. You can even make a cute logo to the back of your Superhero cape.
Create a basic Elf mask. You can use a glue stick or tape to connect it to your Elf’s face.
Stage yoru Elf on yoru backdrop. Use tape to hold up the elf or grab a elf standing prop like an Elf stand.
Viola – You’re done. Now go save the world, super woman, and kick crime and mischief to the curb!
Tip: Expand this idea. Pair this fun superhero outfit with Superhero party ideas or superhero party games.

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
