The elf shows up at your door from the north pole. You have to give him a name and a special place to sit in your home. Each night, he flies back to Santa to report on how your child/children behaved during that day. When he returns he is sitting in a new place. Every morning the kids have to find his new spot. My son really liked looking for "Tommy" every morning, and would even come home from the store and let "Tommy" know if there was a new toy that he found and would like from Santa. "Tommy" left on Christams eve to stay at the north pole and help Santa prepare for next year. But my husband and I have decided that he will probably return at necessary times during the year to check up on our son. My son is almost 3, and the explination about not touching him because it would take away his magic worked great, and we never had a problem. I even had to use my Christmas potholders to take him out of the box so I wouldn't ruin his magic! We really enjoyed having "Tommy" with us this year, and he will be great to have in the years to come!Vollständige Rezension lesen
As a kindergarten teacher I dread students' behavior the week before the Christmas break. This year, a few children in the class had elves (on the shelf) being mischievous at home and would eagerly share their morning findings with us at school. So I decided to purchase one for our classroom. We watched the movie about the Elf on the Shelf, read the story ( I changed up a few words to make it fit to our classroom setting) It worked wonderfully!! The product arrived new and unopened. I also bought our Elf a pair of pajamas (found @ Target) that he sported as the children entered the classroom the morning of pajama day. I guess the Elf on the Shelf really does "hear" what we are saying!

I first saw this advertised in a Sky Mall and thought it looked cute. Boy, did I underestimate how wonderful this is! I have 4 1/2 year old twins. They LOVE this little elf. The book explains the rituals in a charming and beautiful way. Essentially, this is an elf "scout" sent by Santa from the North Pole during the holidays to a family. The family adopts the elf and gets to name him. (We named our elf, Max) Max is an ADORABLE little posable elf with a very retro-looking happy face. He sits on shelves, frames, window ledges - as many places as your imagination can think of. According to the story, he watches over the family, listens to the children's wishes and uses Christmas magic to fly back and report Santa at the North Pole every night. He reports how good the children are, whether they weren't so good, and tells Santa about all their wishes, hopes, fears, delights -- whatever the kids want to tell the Big Guy. So, the next morning, when the children wake up, Max is always hiding in a new place. The elf gently helps little ones waiting for Christmas to monitor their behavior, without heavy handed threats. Instead, it is positive encouragement for the little ones to be at their very best and anticipate the elf's good reports to Santa every night. Every morning they jump out of bed, excited to find their elf's new hiding place. One of the rules, is that no one can touch him (or his magic might go), and that certainly helps to preserve the elf AND the magic. My children are just the right age for this kind of magic. They are completely sold on him and his activities. It is so sweet and charming to watch them talk to the elf and explain their day to him, anticipating his journey to the North Pole later that night. This is a marvelous addition to any house with small children and would make an amazing early Christmas present to anyone with kids. I know our elf will stay in our family forever - even when my kids have outgrown his "magic" - the tradition will always be lovely. And the elf is simply adorable!Vollständige Rezension lesen
I had a friend tell me about this wonderful tradition that she started this past Christmas with her family. She has a 4 year old and she said he fell in love with it. It was also fun for the whole family. She encouraged me to begin it next Christmas with my now 2 year old, so I simply can't wait! I look forward to naming the Elf and the fun of the search each morning. If anyone doesn't know the tradition, I recommend they read about it. Once you do, you'll want to get yours right away. I know it will be one more way I can enjoy Christmas with my little girl!
