ONE MORE ROUND OF NEW ELF ON THE SHELF IDEAS
I grabbed inspiration for my new Elf On The Shelf ideas from all over while I was out running other errands. Hope you enjoy checking them out!

1. SUPER ELVES
Even my mom gets in on the elf fun once in a while. She picked this cute outfit up, and I split the accessories up between our 2 elves.
Supplies:
- Claus Couture Mighty Superhero Set.
- My mom grabbed this one to surprise the boys- I’m pretty sure it’s a Walmart find.
2. DOUGHY GINGERBREAD
When I saw these adorable little buttons at the craft store, I knew I had to find a way to use them with the elves. Those tiny PlayDoh cookies?! The cutest!
Supplies:
- Mini cookie cutters.
- Ours are from a pack of buttons I found at Hobby Lobby.
- Brown PlayDoh.
- Aluminum foil, folded to create a little cookie sheet.
- Waxed paper, to ‘roll out’ the dough.
- Scissors.
3. REINDEER GAMES
These light up reindeer noses are so cute! They’ll be perfect for the little boys to wear to our town Christmas parade.
Supplies:
- Small red pompoms for elf noses.
- Glue dots.
- Light up or foam red noses for the kids.
- I found these at Michael’s.
4. CHRISTMAS BALLOONS
I found these balloons tucked away in my box of Elf On The Shelf goodies, and knew they would be fun to use this year.
Supplies:
- Self inflating Christmas balloons.
- I’m pretty sure I found ours at Dollar Tree last year.
5. SNOWBALL STAND
This was a super quick set up using an inexpensive set from Target. Really cute, and my boys will love it.
Supplies:
- Snowball stand from Bullseye’s Playground at Target.
- Extra white pompoms, because more snowballs are always better!
6. UGLY SWEATERS
Everybody loves an ugly sweater party, even our elves! As a bonus, this set up includes an art project, for a little creativity first thing in the morning!
Supplies:
- Ugly sweater ornaments. Ours are from Target, but these are available at a ton of places.
- Free ‘design a sweater’ printable.
- Markers, crayons, or colored pencils.
- Holiday themed stickers.
7. START THE COUNTDOWN
My sister and I used to make paper chains every Christmas with my mom, and we loved it. This felt version from Target is such a cute countdown idea, I couldn’t pass it up! I paired it with chocolate advent calendars for each of my boys on December 1, so we started the countdown off right! (Plus the felt chain gives us a chance for a little fine motor and math practice as well.)
