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.

Mix it up this year, instead of cookie decorating make a forest of these little trees and have the kiddos decorate them to their hearts content. They will love adding icing, sprinkles and candy to make their own special trees. This would also be a fun food craft to take to a classroom party. Happy holidays!

These Snowman Grahams are too cute and super simple to make! Decorating cookies for Christmas is a ton of fun but, it requires a lot of prep and clean up afterward. During the holiday season you may want to take an easier route for food crafting fun. Make Snowman Grahams instead for a fun treat and easy clean up! They’d be perfect to make for a food crafting playdate with a few kiddos or, why not make this part of your larger holiday party with kids? Any group will love these sweet treats!

Ingredients:

  • Graham crackers
  • Regular marshmallows
  • Jet puffed mallow bits
  • Wilton sparkle gel: red, green, and black
  • Wilton orange candy melts

Directions:

  1. Begin by cutting your marshmallows in half so that you have two circles for every marshmallow.
  2. Place three marshmallow halves onto each graham cracker like pictured.
  3. Now cut the sides off your orange candy melts to make a small triangle from each one.
  4. Use the sparkle gel as glue to glue it onto the center of the top marshmallow.
  5. Now with your black sparkle gel, paint on the snowman’s eyes, mouth, buttons, and arms.
  6. Again using the sparkle gel as glue, glue your marshmallow bits on the graham cracker, around the snowman to look like snow.
  7. To finish your snowman, paint on a scarf with your green sparkle gel, and use the red sparkle gel to make polka dots onto the scarf.
  8. Your snowman are complete! And your kids are sure to have fun making these!

We love this twist on a S’more especially if you are camping! These homemade S’mores Campfire Cones are so easy. Heat in an oven or over a grill (not an open flame) for the perfect S’mores Dessert! We think a great addition would be butterscotch chips!

  • optional: Butterscotch Chips


Directions:

  1. Fill each cone with marshmallows and chocolate chips.
  2. Wrap in aluminum foil.
  3. Head on the grill for 7 – 10 minutes. Keep away from direct flames. (This is also great in the oven!)
