Read more about Elf on the Shelf Book only here.

The Original Elf on the Shelf

Did you know? Elf on the Shelf was written in 2004 by Carol Aebersold and daughter Chanda Bell over a cup of tea. Bell suggested they write a book about an old tradition of an elf sent from Santa who came to watch over children at Christmas time and share with Santa who has been naughty and nice. Over time, elf ideas have evolved to funny Elf on the Shelf Ideas, Easy Elf on the Shelf Ideas and even Naughty Elf on the Shelf Ideas, but the elf was not created for antics. He was created for the Christmas tradition of an elf visiting his/her assigned family… of course, that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun.

Buy Elf on the Shelf

When you buy Elf on the shelf, there are some important features to look for. The Original Elf on the Shelf dolls come with a red Elf, a box, and a book.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.
