Here are 25 of my favorite Elf On The Shelf ideas that are sure to put a smile on your child’s face!
 

Christmas is right around the corner and last year we started a new tradition in our home. It involves a mischievous little elf named AppleJack, also known as Elf On The Shelf. Last December I had learned about the “Elf On The Shelf” phenomenon and got a late start due to the fact that my creative juices weren’t flowing as freely! The holidays can be stressful and with so many other things to think about, acts of goofyness can sure lighten up the mood. This year I made sure to plan early and was determined to compose at least 25 Elf On The Shelf ideas to share with you, my awesome readers.

I am becoming completely addicted to my silly friend and the priceless reactions of my daughter!

Check out AppleJack’s naughty, nice, and quirky antics this year..

    Lol, these are awesome! I really want to do this one year, but this year I just have too much going on (plus my never ending morning sickness). Thank you for sharing your Elfish creativity. πŸ˜‰

    You are so creative w/ ur elf. I like seeing whats next. I just like looking at them. I don't participate. There's some inappropriate ones out there that are hilarious, but for adults!

    Oh my goodness, I absolutely love these ideas. It took a lot of time and thought too. How cute. It looks like your daughter was really excited to see what the elf was up to too. I think the fishing one is my favorite. I don't have kids yet, but I am a nanny and I have a blog too. I wanted to get an elf of the shelf for the blog. I think I will definitely do it next year since I am late this year.

    Adorable ideas! I've managed to stay away from Elf on a Shelf until this year. All of a sudden this year my daughter has been begging for one. I'll need all the creative ideas I can get when I finally do break down and get one!
