I really like the reindeer car costume. Great idea for the elves to put it on the car. I considered buying it one year but my oldest son gave me a look like he would disown me if I did. I do have a reindeer antennae ball though
Here are some of the things that our elves have done...
Gathered all our nutcrackers and used them as bowling pins
played with the kids Walkie talkies/spy stuff
One morning we found them standing on their heads
They put a Santa suit and reindeer nose on the kids stuffed animals
Put a "Santa I ate all your cookies T-shirt" on my sons Mickey mouse after he apparently ate Santa's cookies on Christmas eve.
hung a portrait of santa over the mantel (extra large gift bag)
Put a santa tree topper on the Christmas tree
Last year one elf got sick. We found him with an ice pack on his head and a thermometer by his mouth. There was a note asking us to get him peppermint tic tacs. He needed to take 1 at bedtime for 3 nights.
They threw my santa decoration out of the sleigh and climbed inside
Tied up our new abominable snowman outdoor decoration with tinsel because they were afraid of him.
Surveilling abominable snowman outdoor decoration all night with night vision goggles
Made a doorbell for outside the kids room that plays jingle bells. (I found a musical tie at the dollar store that played jingle bells. I took the musical piece out, added a circular christmassy sticker to cover the front, and used double stick tape to attatch to the wall (elf height). The kids were sleeping with their doors shut. I think they wanted to be able to get inside and play.
They made themselves comfortable in my kids playmobil Santa house, one elf tried to get down chimney
They used our goalie leg pads as a slide
My kids wanted to sleep downstairs one night, so the elves took over their bed.
They left a note in their sleeping bags to find them. They were hiding in a box that had a clear window under the tree. I was going to leave these clues but never did.
…..clue..#1 get us out of here
#2 we are tied up right now
#3 open it now.....don't wait till Christmas
They also set up the igloo tent idea that was posted last year.
I'll post the ideas I have for this year after I get them all together.
I added some of our elf photos on the album page :elf:
