Elf on the Shelf Ideas with Cars

Elf on the Shelf Outside Step2 Push Car

We are back, so is the Elf on the Shelf! If you have been with us a long time, you know we have brought you a new Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily (in the months of November and December) for the past six years. You can view our Elf on the Shelf Master List for a full list of ideas including every idea we have ever done.

For many of these Elf on the Shelf ideas, make sure you have an elf that can bend. You can do that easily with our Bendable Elf on the Shelf tutorial.  You also can sign up for all of our Free Elf on the Shelf Printables here.

Step2 Push Car

If there is any door you have seen me buy, sell and then buy again, it was our Step2 Push Car. It was a great ride-on for both my girls and my boys. Just when I thought I was done having kids, I sold our red push car and then bam, three more kids came! This car was not only a great substitute for our stroller (we brought it to all sort of sporting events and outdoor walks) but it also was great for keeping my kids in place – just click your child in place with an an easy click seat belt. As my girls aged, they rolled down the drive away seeing who could go the fastest and furthest.  Of course the Step2 Push Car is also perfect for Elf!

Outside Elf on the Shelf Step2 Push Car

Elf on the Shelf Ideas Outside

Sometimes when take my Elf on the Shelf Ideas outside, I leave a little hint to help the kids find Elf. Of course, watch the weather, because you don’t want your Elf on the Shelf outside on a day perception is coming. One example is when we turned our Elf on the Shelf into a parrot. Elf was munching at the bird feeder and we had feathers leading to outside so our kids could locate elf. For this Step2 Push Car (or whatever ride-on you use), you could have a little note on the door that says – “Beep, beep. Honk, honk!”

The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights.

Employee of the Month Printable

Guess what!?! I made this printable MONTHS ago. I was really excited about it. So excited to bring it to you all and then… I forgot! I literally forgot to share it. I began preparing in JUNE (yes, June) to bring you guys the best Elf ideas. I had them all lined up. I have been checking off my list scheduling Elf ideas to get you all all the way until Christmas and I forgot MY FAVORITE ELF PRINTABLE!

So here it is, delayed from my own checklist, but just in time for your North Pole Visitor our Employee of the Month Printable. This printable comes with Parking sign as well has multiple name tags (for our friends that have multiple elves, I think I saw someone with 13 in our Elf Facebook Group.)

Because it’s my favorite, you found a hidden coupon code. Save 50% off with code FAVORITE. That works on the Elf Employee of the Month Parking Sign and Name Tag only. Code cannot be combined with other coupon code.

Have you adopted a girl Elf Baby? We created “It’s a girl” printable for your baby Elf on the Shelf ideas. New creative, funny, and original Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily.

It’s a Girl Baby Elf Printable

Elf on the Shelf Girl Baby Elf and Free Elf Printable

I said I was done having kids, but I  did it. We bought a cute Elf baby. After having five kids, and now an elf baby, this is the last baby to enter this home – there I said it! (Only kidding – wink!) More on our Girl Elf Baby adoption later.

Elf on the Shelf Ideas

We are back, so is the Elf on the Shelf! If you have been with us a long time, you know we have brought you a new Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily (in the months of November and December) for the past six years. You can view our Elf on the Shelf Master List for a full list of ideas including every idea we have ever done.

Elf on the Shelf Ideas we have included in the past that are perfect for Girl Elf Babies are our Elf on the Shelf Babysitter, Elf on the Shelf Rice Krispies Cereal (the girl baby elf can be another head) and Put your Baby Elf in the Mini Van for a Road Trip.


How to Introduce a Girl Elf Baby

In order to justify our purchase, I decided to make some Elf on the Shelf Printables for a Baby Elf. This is the second of three (currently) Elf Baby Printables. You can see our first Punny Acute Elf Baby Printable.

To introduce a Girl Baby Elf in your home, this It’s a Girl printable is a great idea. I have spoken with some elf enthusiast and they have been confused on how to keep a baby elf for many years after this. You could explain this baby elf is in training and will move on to another family as their elf next year.

Girl Elf Baby in Red Lace plus Elf on the Shelf Printable

Where to Buy a Girl Elf Baby

Our Elf Baby came with a bottle, rattle and baby doll. I have a feeling the accessories might vary a little with each purchase as this product is found in the handmade section of Amazon.

We decided to stay with the red lace because our Elf on the Shelf is red, but there are many other Girl Elf Baby options. Amazon has an entire Elf Girl Baby section in the Handmade section. Another perfect place to personalize an Elf on the Shelf Baby is on Etsy.

A few cute elf baby dolls to accompany your Elf on the Shelf include…

Twin Boy Girl Elf Babies

… and because I have my own twins, I had to share these Twin Boy and Girl Elf Babies. I am in love!

Not many supplies are needed for this Elf on the Shelf Idea. You already have your Elf on the Shelf, we assume. You can use a baby doll in the home or adopt your own baby elf. Details on how to print all of our Elf on the Shelf printables below!

Speaking of Girl Baby Elf supplies, make sure you have our Elf on the Shelf Calendar where we list ideas for every day as well as a supply list of what you need for your Elf on the Shelf Ideas. If you do not want to follow our calendar, we offer a blank calendar template and supply list.

Elf on the Shelf Magic Seeds

The first day you provide your child with a Christmas poem. You will also need a bowl of sugar and some magic seeds (we used Tic-Tacs.) Have your child read the poem and then plant their magic seeds into the bowl of sugar. Wait one day, while their garden grows. The anticipation is exciting!

Elf on the Shelf Garden

That night, remove the magic seeds and insert Candy Canes. We planted seven Tic-Tacs and grew six candy canes. As a tip to mom, count your Tic-Tacs, they (meaning your kids) will too! When your kids wake, their garden will have grown from magic seeds to a magical Christmas Candy Cane garden!

Tip: Use your candy cane to tell a story later! Print this The Legend of Candy Cane Poem Printable.

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.

Funny Elf on the Shelf Idea - Baby Shark

Baby Shark Costume

We personally used cake toppers to create our Baby Shark Costume. They were very inexpensive and I was able to use them later for my daughter’s birthday cake.


Baby Shark Costume for Elf on the Shelf

If balancing a shark fin cupcake topper is not on your list of things to do, we have another printable to help you perfect the cutest Baby Shark costume fin for this Elf on the Shelf Shark idea. Print out our shark fins, glue two fins back to back, then bed the red tab and use double sided tape to stick to elf’s back.
