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

Christian Elf on the Shelf Alternatives

If Elf on the Shelf isn’t your thing, first we say – “why not!?!” Ha, ha. Really no judgment. We have some Christian Elf on the Shelf Alternatives for your holiday season.

Christian Elf on the Shelf Alternatives

The most popular is the Shepherd On the Search Advent Activity Set from DaySpring.

Embark on a family journey and find Christ in Christmas! During the Advent season, begin reading the story of your shepherd’s timeless journey in a beautifully illustrated interactive children’s book, and let the fun begin every day as you hide your shepherd and your children find him in a new place along the search

Also take a look at The Little Christmas Angel by Peggy Barons.

This boxed gift set contains one hardcover color illustrated children’s book, with beautifully designed Christmas Angel doll. The story begins in ancient Bethlehem, but quickly moves into modern times taking the reader on a lively journey with a little angel, right into their own home.

Similar to an advent calendar and a blend of Elf on the Shelf, the Christmas Star From Afar has a hidden star to create a fun and challenging hide-and-seek Christmas game for kids of all ages.

This Gift Set includes soft cover book and 15 piece wooden nativity set additional items – The Star From Afar Stable Animals and Scripture Cards! To play, Set up your nativity. Hide the Star every night. Once your children find the Star move all Three Wise Men to its location.

Also take a look at The Shepherd’s Treasure Book. An advent calendar that eventually brings the gift of Jesus.

The Shepherd’s Treasure is a faith based countdown to Christmas. During the month of December, children follow their Shepherd on a fun, interactive treasure hunt to find the true meaning of Christmas. On Christmas morning, they find their Shepherd kneeling before the greatest treasure of all time: JESUS!

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.
