Elf Reindeer Chocolate Pudding

In our Christmas Food Craft – Rudolph Reindeer Pudding Cups, we show you how to make quick and easy Reindeer Pudding Cups using googly eyes and a red pom-pom. We mostly did the same this time except we used a brown pipe cleaner.

Elf on the Shelf Supplies Needed

• The Elf on the Shelf Doll
• Googly Eyes
• Red Pom-Poms (black too if you want the other reindeer)
• Brown Pipe Cleaners
• Pencil
• Hot Glue Gun
• Chocolate Instant Pudding Cups

Santa has 9 reindeer, in this Elf on the Shelf reindeer idea, we just used 7. It is up to you how many you want to make but have one pudding cup for each reindeer.

First, wrap brown pipe cleaners around a pencil to create a fun antler shape.  Put aside.

Use a hot clue gun to glue on two googly eyes and one reindeer nose for each reindeer.

Glue the pipe cleaner antlers on the chocolate pudding cups.

Line up and place Elf in the back for a fun Elf on a Shelf Reindeer sleigh ride.

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.
