If you’ve ever visited Santa’s Workshop in the North Pole you’ll know that Santa has many elves helping him to prepare for Christmas. But I bet you didn’t know that not all of the elves stay in the workshop all year round. Each and every year Santa sends some of his magical elves on a special assignment. To visit the homes of little boys and girls the world over, to spend time in their homes and with their families, and to report back to Santa about their behaviour in the run up to Christmas.

Santa’s Elf is designed to make Christmas a magical one for your children. He’s the perfect interactive tradition for families and school classes. Do you have young children who would like a visit from Santa’s Magic Elf this Christmas? Then read on and find out how to bring a little magic into your home this holiday season.

This magical elf is very mischievous and gets himself into all manner of unlikely places as he carries out Santa’s investigations. Your kids will also want to take him to visit friends and classmates so he needs to be sturdy. If you are creative you could make your own Magic Elf using material scraps, other wise you can pick one up from a store.

Your Magic Elf will need a name, a letter from Santa explaining the reason for his visit and a small notebook or journal in which he will write his Elf Report. The premise here is that Father Christmas has sent this little elf to visit your family to report back to Father Christmas on the behaviour of your children. Santa will return to collect the Elf on Christmas Eve and if they have been good he will leave gifts before whisking the Elf home to the North Pole.

You’ll need to decide on the best time for him to arrive into your house. This could be during Thanksgiving, a couple of weeks before Christmas, or even on the day you put up the Christmas Tree. Choose a day that suits your family best. You might want to put the elf in a basket along with his letter and notebook, or hide him in the Christmas Tree. Use your imagination to introduce him to your kids with a little fan fare – he is an important guest after all!

Once the Elf is settled into your house he will need to spend the evenings carrying out his research, once the little ones are sound asleep you can hide him in cupboards or behind the sofa. Carrying out Santa’s investigations is tiring work and this little elf can be known to fall asleep on the job. The kids will have to search for him in the morning to find out where he fell asleep this time.

Oh and did I mention the Elf Mischief? Yes, he has a mischievous streak and is known to take all of the pots and pans out of the kitchen cupboards, hide the remote control for the television and leave candies in coat pockets — all while the kids are fast asleep!

Come December 24 your visiting elf will need to be packed and ready for his trip home to the North Pole. Make sure you bundle him up warm with his Elf Report and place him near the chimney or window so that he can let Santa into the house. Your children might want to send him home with a letter that they have written to Santa. They’ll probably want to tell him all about the mischief that the elf got up to, how much they enjoyed his visit, and of course extend an invitation for next Christmas!

Nice size   Review Date: January 7, 2010 Reviewer: C. Litchfield, Ohio Great elf doll! Using this as a substitute for the expensive "Elf On A Shelf" doll. Much larger than imagined. My grandson will love it! great shelf elf   Review Date: December 20, 2009 Reviewer: E. Trevino, We use our elf as a no-touch shelf elf and it is perfect! It's soft enough for the kids to hold and cuddle, but also has a sturdy bottom and sits well on shelves. Very pleased with this little elf! Awesome Elf   Review Date: December 7, 2009 Reviewer: J. Barrett, B'ham, Al USA My son got this elf from the North Pole recently and he loves it! We named him Elmer, and he is a great elf to have! Great elf purchase for keeping the "magic" alive! My daughter got the girl elf and she loves her too...both kids carry these elves everywhere they go, and they'll be missing them when Santa takes the elves home to the North Pole on Christmas eve...but we'll be excited to get them back year after year after year! Better than Elf on the Shelf   Review Date: November 18, 2009 Reviewer: onwisc95, Great alternative if you don't want to drop $30+ for the Elf on the Shelf product. In addition, this plush elf is better than the Elf that comes with the Elf on the Shelf. My sons received this package from Santa in the North Pole. Inserted in the package was a letter created by my husband and I describing the elf's magical powers and that the elf is in direct contact with Santa. The elf magically moves around the house daily. My 2 year old has found the elf before his older brother at times. The elf is not fool proof. My boys still act out every once in awhile. This is a great Christmas tradition. Little Elf   Review Date: January 17, 2009 Reviewer: Michael I. Caswell, Thunder Bay,, ON, CANADA The elf was even more "cute" than my son thought it would be, and the stories and everything available on the computer about it were really enjoyed by my son.Plush Santas Secret Elf Boy 11" Cool Magic Elf   Review Date: January 7, 2009 Reviewer: D. Odum, Jacksonville, FL USA My kids each wanted a "Magic Elf" this year and when I went online to see how much said elves would cost...well, let's just say they were way out of our budget. For the price, this sweet elf was perfect! All the other kids at school loved our elves, some even better than their own skinny-legged ones! My eight-year old son thought he was very cool. awsome lionel   Review Date: December 29, 2008 Reviewer: C. Lavoie, Well my son came home from school talking about everyone in his class getting an elf send a letter to santa and he sends an elf here it is a week before xmas i found this little fellow he is better than the ones the other kids got he was cheeper and better looking they sent it fast too,well it was hard for my son to put him back under the tree for santa to pick up so he could come visit next year he fell in love with him and slept with him every night even tho lionel(we named him)got into trouble everynight. Santa's gift!   Review Date: December 20, 2008 Reviewer: Hemant Joshi, An angry mailman came to our house 4 times because of letters with the address, "Santa - North Pole" asking for elves by my 7 year old daughter, Kathy. When she ran out of hope thinking Santa put her on the naughty list; I looked everywhere for a cute little elf she could call hers. This elf, named Ginger, is a bit bigger than I thought but is tons of fun and will surely bring excitment and joy to your child, as it did to Kathy, who swears her elf woke up in the middle of the night and ate the cookies I made for Christmas in the pantry!!! We can't wait to see some more of its 'midnight mysteries'! Santa's Secret Elf   Review Date: January 18, 2008 Reviewer: Regina Bates, Birmingham, Al USA I purchased the Elf for my son. He was the perfect size, very soft and cuddly. He brought much fun and joy to our home during Christmas. Thank you for the speedy shipment. It arrived within the estimated time given. Sincerely, Regina Bates Cute & Cuddly   Review Date: January 18, 2008 Reviewer: Enrique Shortbeach, Lexington, SC USA Our 6 year old little girl sleeps with this elf. She believes he has "magical" powers....
