1. Mummified Elf
Wrap it in toilet roll so it looks like it’s dressed up as a mummy.
2. Mountaineering Elf
Make it a rope (tinsel, not just for decoration) and let the kids nd Ele in the middle of climbing the Christmas tree
3. Chocolate Thief Elf
Ok, so having kids requires some sacrices. I never said this Elf-shelf thing have Ele sitting in a pile of chocolate wrappers or open advent calendars (mummy and daddy’s ones, NOT the kids, we don’t want tears!) This may mean you have no chocolate that morning (but only because you’ve eaten it the night before…)
4. Gaming Elf
Got slightly older kids? Can’t get them o computer games? Well now you can, position Elfie with a games console controller, a pile of games and some snacks and your kids will discover it’s time for someone else to have a turn.
5. Film Buff Elf
Elfie has had a late night. Whilst everyone’s been sleeping the cheeky little elf has curled up in front of the TV, remote control in hand and snacks at the ready, to watch films till the early hours.
6. Snow Angel Elf
The messy version of this is to use our or icing sugar, make a snow angel shape on the floor and put the Elf in the middle of it. Who wants to clean that up in the morning?! Cheat and use cotton wool to make the angel shape.
7. Paper Chain Elf
Elfin has been busy decorating. Make paper chains and hang from the ceiling,hang the Elf from the ceiling nearby (tie sellotape to Ellie’s hand for added effect).
8. Got Milk? Elf
Strong bones are needed for all the mischief. Elf decides to get some extra calcium. Position the Elf next to an empty milk bottle.
9. Lego Your Elf
Did you know, elves love to play with construction toys? Make an Elf portrait out of Lego.
10. Picasso Elf
Elves love to paint and draw too. This night Elsie decides to create a masterpiece for the kids to marvel at in the morning.
11. Bank Robber Elf
The Elf has raided the piggy banks! They’re all empty and the money has been hidden, someone were easy to find. We don’t want tears. A sack next to the Elf or lego safe.
12. Sat Nav Malfunction Elf
The wisemen have gotten lost…oh and so have the shepherds, Joseph, Mary and even the little baby Jesus has gone AWOL. There’s only one thing this could be, Elf has hidden the nativity scene figures!
13. Big Head Elf
Elf is really making a name for himself as a trouble maker now. All this notoriety has gone to his head and he’s replaced the star on Christmas tree with himself.
14. Gym Bunny Elf
Make an Elf sized barbell by putting marshmallows on the ends of a straw (may need to trim the straw) and the kids can find Elf pumping some iron, expertise is a good example for Elf to make to kids.
15. Sun Seeker Elf
Time to top up the tan. Make an Elf sized beach towel out of some old material. Draw a sun and sunglasses on a sheet of paper and cut them out. Lay Elf on his new beach towel, sunglasses on his face and paper sun to his side. Add an Elf sized drink and book for extra sun worshipping fun.
16. Snow Elf
Elf has been built a snowman overnight though, due to a lack of snow, he’s made it out of toilet rolls. Stack up three toilet rolls, wrap a scarf around and put a hat on top. Cut circles out of black paper, use them for eyes and buttons. Or draw snowman features on them.
17. Bathing Elf
Taking a bath can be a chilly air in the North Pole, Elves do it a different way. Create an Elf sized bath out of an ice cream tub or similar, place Elf inside and fill the rest of the bath with marshmallows or cotton wool.
18. Spider-Elf
Is is a bird? Plane? No, it’s Spider-Elf. Making Elf a Spider-Man mask to wear and hang him upside down from the ceiling. Pat yourself on the back if you also use left over fake spider web from Halloween to make him look even cooler.
19. Oil Change Elf
Elf decides his car needs a little maintenance, tonight he decides to take a toy or remote control car for spin.
20. Minion Your Elf
Bananas are boring, only Minions love them. Armed with this knowledge and a Sharpie, Elf decides to liven up the fruit bowl by drawing the faces of Bob, Kevin and Co. on the bananas. Or just draw smile faces of ever but of packaging in the kitchen, your kids will keep finding smilie faces for days.
21. Toasty Elf
What’s more wintery than toasting marshmallows over an open fire? Quiet rightly, Elf is not allowed to play with matches so attempts to toast a marshmallow over a battery powered candle instead.
22. Hi Ho Elf
Elf doesn’t have a sleigh to go dashing through the snow on. However, put some reins on a cuddly toy and Elf will be riding around the living room tonight.
23. Post-it Your Elf
Post-it Note the house…yes, the house. Cover the doors, walls, windows, tables, fridge, any surface you can find, with Christmas messages written on Post-it Notes.
24. Snowman a door
Elf has supersized his snowman. This time make even bigger black paper buttons and eyes to stick on a door. Your winning at life if you get a scarf on the door too!
