The elf has came – but where is he hiding? This is also a good reminder that your elf is always watching (even when you can’t see him!) A great way for your elf to make his grand entrance is by being wrapped up like a present beneath the tree. If you have some presents wrapped already, then you will most likely have some Christmas gift wrap handy. This is a fun and easy option for elf on the shelf first day ideas. You could also include an elf arrival letter in the envelope explaining why they are visiting during this special time of the year.

About me
It’s the same with your elf’s goodbye. Your elf can leave on Christmas Eve or whenever you want it to! Who wouldn’t want to wake up to a North Pole breakfast surprise?! The possibilities for this elf on the shelf arrival are endless. Elf on the Shelf Planners– free printable Elf antics planners to help make your December super EASY! P.S. Remember I’m always watching and want to tell Santa you’ve been very good, so make sure you’re on your best behaviour! You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not forget that it’s almost time for your families elf (or elves?!) to return! If your kids are anything like mine they have been counting down the elf on the shelf arrival for MONTHS, and the anticipation of how their elves will arrive is always a hot topic!
For older kids, you could put together a longer message for them to read aloud, bringing Christmas greetings from the North Pole, and prehaps a reminder about the most important rule - not to touch the Elf or he'll lose his magic! Simply pop your Elf inside a mason jar (or any kind of clear container), add hand sanitiser, plus a mask for the Elf’s face. The return of your Elf on the Shelf is a special event, full of mystery and wonder. It’s the start of your Elf’s adventures in December, so you want to make it memorable.You simply cannot go wrong with Christmas lights! Use the lights to light up a runway for your Christmas Scout elf, and watch the delight in your child’s eyes as they find their elf has finally arrived! 14. Landing in Christmas Tree Via Elf on Shelf Elves can be messy little house guests! If your kids are counting down the days until your elf arrives, and you are just not quite ready (or you want to build the anticipation) a few carefully crafted mysterious messes will have everyone searching for their little friends!
It’s totally up to you. Some people have their elf arrive on Thanksgiving, others wait until December 1st, or you could do any day that works for you! Returning Elves are always an exciting time of year for kids—it marks the beginning of their adventure before Christmas arrives. These creative ideas will ensure that your Elf has an unforgettable entrance that starts off his month-long stay with lots of excitement and wonderment!
