What is Elf on the Shelf?
The idea is simple: families get sent an elf from the North Pole who has the job of reporting on the children’s behaviour to Santa each night. When the elf returns he moves to a different place around the house proving much fun for kids to hunt him out. Some elves simply switch places but others get up to mischief overnight.
