Elf On a Shelf Begins!

Oh so excited Firstly I have to tell you all as it has just happened!I entered a competition through Kochie's Business Builders to ""pimp my page'' By Kochie!!! To win $10,000 to have my website updated, marketing help etc. I was contacted this morning to say my entry has been shortlisted (yes I'm guessing there are quite a few others, but hey I'm one step closer) Woohoo!!!!!!!! Winner isn't announced till 22nd of December  which will feel like ages away but really isnt enough time to get so much stuff done)

Now, I wasn't going to blog about Elf on the shelf till next week, but already after two nights I am so excited at my son (Memphis) reaction. He has absolutely lost his head over Elf Rusty! He cannot believe how Rusty  can do the things he's done already. Oh he is at the perfect age to have introduced Elf. He has the understanding and belief to make it work.

What is Elf on a Shelf?

The Elf on the Shelf® is a special scout elf sent from the North Pole to help Santa Claus manage his naughty and nice lists. When a family adopts an elf and gives it a name, the elf receives its Christmas magic and can fly to the North Pole each night to tell Santa Claus about all of the day's adventures. Each morning, the elf returns to its family and perches in a different place to watch the fun. Children love to wake up and race around the house looking for their elf each morning.

There are two simple rules that every child knows when it comes to having an elf. First, an elf cannot be touched; Christmas magic is very fragile and if an elf is touched it may lose that magic and be unable to fly back to the North Pole. Second, an elf cannot speak or move while anyone in the house is awake! An elf's job is to watch and listen.

Elves typically appear in their families’ homes at the beginning of the holiday season (December 1st for most ). On Christmas Eve, the elves return to the North Pole with Santa Claus--until next year!
