We use this Elf on the Shelf Welcome Letter. Print it, plug in your child’s name, sign it with your elf’s name and you are all set. A personal letter from the good ol’ elf is always a win!

Grab the Band Aids. Use them to stick Elf on the Shelf to the door, the wall, the bathroom mirror, or where ever you want to stick him. Your preschooler will love this!

Toilet paper the Christmas tree. Place your Elf on the Shelf nearby with some of the toilet paper near his hand…. guess who did it?!?

Grab some mini marshmallows and fill a coffee cup up with them. Place your elf on top and call it a bubble bath. The kids will love eating the marshmallows as a special treat.
