The Elf on the Shelf Fruit Car

Rev up your holiday excitement with the whimsical fruit car—a delightful twist that combines the magic of your mischievous guy with the freshness of vibrant fruits! Picture this: four juicy oranges meticulously arranged within a banana, intricately crafted with the precision of toothpicks to form a festive, homemade elf-sized car. This fruity masterpiece not only serves as a captivating scene for The Elf on the Shelf but also brings a burst of citrusy cheer to your home.

Supplies

• The Elf on the Shelf Doll (s)
• Tooth Picks
• Bananas
• Four Clemintines for Every Banana/Elf

How to Make The Elf on the Shelf Fruit Car Race

To set up this homemade fruit car for your Scout Elves, the steps are simple.

Lay your banana on the countertop with the curve touching the countertop and the top and bottom of the banana pointed at the ceiling.

Insert four toothpicks. These will hold the tires (oranges) in your car.

Insert the clementines onto the toothpicks to make the shape of wheels on the banana.

If creating an idea for multiple elves, alternate the cars to make it look like your family elves are at the races.

As your North Pole visitor takes the wheel of this miniature fruit vehicle, get ready for imaginative adventures and shared laughter as your little ones marvel at the clever fusion of holiday spirit and fruity fun.

Extend the Idea: Put a track down using tape and or construction paper. Even add a finish line for the fruit races!

The Elf on the Shelf Fruit Car is not just a creative display—it’s a testament to the joyous inventiveness that the holiday season and healthy, wholesome fruits can seamlessly bring to your family holiday traditions. Buckle up for a fruity ride filled with laughter and holiday enchantment!
