The Elf On The Shelf Hiding Ideas

Published On: November 19, 2018By Tags: , ,

Do you have a cheeky elf that visits you each Christmas? This year we thought we would get a little more creative with our elf Rosie Rainbow so we have compiled this list of The Elf On The Shelf Hiding Ideas. These 23 ideas are all simple, fun and full of laughs.

Over Christmas a special elf visits and each night he/ she uses its magic to go home to Santa to report on the kid’s behavior, on returning home the elf hides in a new spot. Children love this tradition and the fun that goes into finding their special elf and with a bit of luck the elf encourages children to be on their best behavior!
