Elf On The Shelf

Well it finally arrived! Our Elf on the Shelf bundle landed on our door step yesterday afternoon and boy was I excited! I have been patiently waiting so that we can start this little tradition with our main man and now I can get into teacher mode and have some fun with it :)

I purchased the boy Elf for our little guy and then purchased the girl version for our sweet Goddaughter and her little sister as part of their Christmas present. I purchased these two bundles from here as they had the quickest delivery time for the start of Christmas but you can purchase from numerous online stores within Australia.

The story behind the Elf on the Shelf is a simple one....to keep the magic of Christmas alive!
The story and product were created by a mother-daughter team. The idea is that this clever little Elf is Santa's eyes and ears and he/she reports back to Santa each night to let him know if they have been naughty or nice. Each morning the Elf is waiting in a different location around the house keeping an eye on the comings and goings in the house. You can read more about the Elf on the Shelf tradition here.

Stay tuned to discover what adventures our little Elf goes on in the lead up to Christmas! There is even an app you can download to help you get some inspiration
