I promised myself last year was the last year as the kids (far to old for it ) were so bored by it after a week but at the weekend my son got upset and confused as to whether it was real and I said 'well you need to decide whether to believe in the magic ...' and I could see if I didn't do the bloody elf it would shatter all his childhood Christmases (over dramatic yes!!)
So long story short I've got to do it and the kids remember all the previous years elf activities - I just want really quick ideas -eg marshmallows for a snowball fight , loo roll down the stairs, ball pool in the sink , flour snow angel etc etc
Please post any similar things you've done with yours ...
