Does anyone else do this for the children in the house?
Every year ds is allocated his elf, he gets a letter from father Christmas telling him the name of his elf, what he likes to do and eat.
It also tells him that the elf's job is things like bringing the Christmas spirit, putting the sparkle into Christmas decorations. To give mum the magic glitter that goes into the reindeer food and to keep a eye on ds to report back good and bad behavior.
We usually end up with a naughty one who leaves part eaten mince pies during the night and hides in different places around the house.
The elf goes home to the north pole on Christmas eve as obviously it is very busy and ge goes home to help the others.
We also have a book where ds writes down and puts photos of his adventures with the elf.
I was talking about this at work and got looked at like i was completely mad... We cant be the only ones expecting a green jingly lodger soon can we??
by the way the elf is a small cuddly toy elf.. Not a scary dressed up person
