The Elf on the Shelf tradition has become a magical staple in households across America since it hit the shelves 20 years ago. With the holiday season around the corner, families are gearing up to welcome their little elf back into their homes. But if you’re running out of exciting ideas for where to hide your elf, fear not! We’ve compiled a list of fun hiding spots that will keep your kids engaged and excited each morning.
A New Take on the Christmas Tree
Transform your Christmas tree into an adventure zone! The elf can easily blend into the branches, providing a thrilling challenge for your kids. For an extra surprise, try using the elf as your tree topper for a day and watch how long it takes for your children to notice!
Cozying Up in a Bookshelf
If your bookshelf is bursting with books, you’ve found a perfect hiding spot! Place the elf nestled between books or behind family photos to create a delightful scavenger hunt.
Summit the Fridge for Fun
The top of the refrigerator often serves as a forgotten space. Tuck the elf amongst cereal boxes for a playful surprise your children won’t see coming.
Joining the Toy Collection
Does your child have a collection of stuffed animals or toys? Position the elf among the plush friends and let your kids discover their toy is making new friends.
Hang Ten on the Coat Rack
If you live in a colder climate, your coat rack has likely become a busy hub. Set the elf up high among coats or using a glove as a ‘swing’ to generate laughter as your kids find him after school.
Dining Room Discovery
Place the elf within your holiday centerpiece—adding to the charm of the dining table. The kids will enjoy the challenge while helping set the table for dinner.
Climbing the Garland
If you’ve draped garlands around your home, use them as part of your elf location scheme. The elf can be hiding amidst the decorations, blending perfectly with the festive colors.
Cozy Up by the Couch
Your fluffy blankets make a warm hiding space! Slide the elf into a pile of blankets where it’s nestled comfortably, creating an enchanting home.
Nature’s Window Sill
If you have a garden window filled with plants, why not let the elf camp out there? The greenery will camouflage him perfectly while your family enjoys a fun search.
Fruit Bowl Surprise
Finally, hiding your elf in the fruit bowl is not only whimsical but could also encourage your kids to enjoy healthy snacks. It’s a peekaboo of fun while reminding them to eat their fruits!
These hiding spots can renew and invigorate your Elf on the Shelf tradition, making each day a new adventure for your family. Embrace the magic and creativity of the season by making the elf a part of your daily excitement!
