I thought I would refresh the list of the favorite Elf visits. I'm trying to get some inspiration for new ideas that I could translate into the RV this year.
If
you need any ideas for your Elf (or reindeer/snowman/whatever
creature you may hide), here are some of our Elf's past exploits. (NOTE:
These are only some of his previous ideas, but all of his appearances
can be found under Categories: Elf On The Shelf.)
- Lego House with fireplace and book
- Light saber fight with Storm Trooper and Darth Vader
- "Doctor Who" Elf vs. a Dalek
- Minecraft Steve Elf with Diamond Helmet and Sword
- Relaxing on a marshmallow chair. My most insane idea yet, as I stabbed my fingers multiple times with toothpicks. However, when I was done, Eugene did have a nice (yet small) chair and foot rest made of mini marshmallows.
- Super Hero E!. While he may just be pretending to fly on the curtain rod, he did have a cape.
- Playing hockey
- Ninja Elf
- Parachuting in
- Stuck In A Snow Globe
- Snowman Door
- Missing Elf Alert Poster
- Hallway Obstacles:
- Ice skating
- Making a garland for the tree
- Zip Lining to the tree
- Zombie Attack. Playing Plants VS Zombies.
- Making a S'more in the pantry
- Making paper snowflake decorations
- Sledding on the tree
- Swinging from the ceiling fan
- Poker Night
- Popcorn Snowman Snack Cups
- Elf Packed Lunch (Full of all the things an elf wants to eat.)
- Treasure Hunt. Eugene likes to leave things for the boys when he goes home. One year it was a wrapped present, another year he left them a treasure hunt.
- Minion bananas
- Elf Circus
- Hiding in a bottle. The link to my post has instructions! It's pretty easy and the boys were amazed. :)
- Making a snowman. I stacked larger sized marshmallows to form the snowman. I used an edible marker to make the face and buttons, although melted chocolate would work well too. You could "glue" the marshmallows together with chocolate or hold together with a toothpick down the center.
- Placing Bows On Toys.
- Elf Stuck In A Snow Globe
- Some not as exciting ideas:
- Drinking hot chocolate (mini marshmallow filled cup from the kids’ kitchen set)
- Flying on the dinosaur that was hanging in Higgins' room.
- Using my Christmas Scavenger Hunt card.
- Candy Cane Scavenger Hunt
- Eating gingerbread cookies
- Wrapping a present. (This was left on his last day and was a game we bought for the boys.)
- Leaving a note to clean their rooms.
- Elf sized donuts. It's fun to have 2 plates: one that the elf is eating, and plate with note that these are to share. Originally, I made these for the leprechaun, but changed the candy melts to a darker green, red, and white for an Elf sized treat.
- Sick Note from the Elf
- Writing a Story with the Elf
