Christmas is such a fun time of year with four little kids. I remember back to Christmases when I was younger and all of my brothers and sisters (I am the oldest of 8) and the weeks from Halloween until we went back to school in January were ones such that my parents probably wanted to lock the doors as we left to get on the bus. I can relate to that now, simply because of the peace and quiet and how much cleaner the house stays, and the quiet (oh wait, I already said that).
Even with all the noise and excitement I love the holidays. It is a fun time of year and having our Elf on the Shelf visit every day in December gives the kids something fun to look forward to. I am always on the lookout for fun and creative ideas, so I wanted to share this collection that I found. I will also be sharing the ideas that we do this year because they are going to rock!
Here are the 30 Elf on the Shelf Ideas that we found and can’t wait to try on our kids this year:
