We are back, so is the Elf! If you have been with us a long time, you know we have brought you a new Elf on the Shelf Idea EVERY DAY (in November and December) for the past four years

WELCOME BACK ELF! We have a couple ways for you to reintroduce your Elf into your home. Today we start with a package or a special delivery! Consider cutting a hole through the top of the package and having elf pop through. It’s an adorable idea and your kids will find Elf when they head to school that morning waiting for them on the front porch. Consider adding treats in your box, fake snow, or keep it empty (if the kids don’t need an extra “just because gift!” In our photo, we added some doll house packages. You could also pair this idea with our FREE Elf Postcard (another one here). Also take a look at these adorable Christmas gifts, could be cute at the door too!

See all our ways to Welcome Elf on the Shelf with these First Day Ideas.

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

It’s a bird, it’s a …. parrot. This bird Elf on the Shelf idea only requires feathers! New creative, funny, and original Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily plus free printables.

Bird Elf on the Shelf

Birds of a feather, flock together! It’s been really hard for me to not pull out all the bird quotes I have.

We are back, maybe you are not yet but we are doing our best to get all the Elf on the Shelf Ideas that we can, so when your family welcomes back your Elf, you are ready! As a reminder, we come to you every day in the month of November and December with new Elf ideas.  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.  This was a great place where a bendable Elf was beneficial – get that wire in him now!

Bird Elf on the Shelf Idea

This idea is not only for the birds, it’s for all of us. We think the kids would find it quite comical.  If you worry your kids would never find Elf outside, have them follow a path of dropped feathers to the yard will Elf awaits on the feeder eating seed.  It was a bit of a balancing act getting him up there. In the first photo, I tucked the tips of the feather underneath the feeder rim and then positioned elf on the metal perch. Clear finishing line would not be a bad idea, to tie him in the place. The higher he is, the less the kids are likely to notice the details.

In the second photo, I used the string that held the feathers in place and weaved it around the bird feeder perch.  I think I prefer the first positioning, as he looks like a bird that is eating but the second idea definitely displays his colorful feathers!

Bird Tip: Have your kids follow a path of feathers outside to find Elf on the Shelf!

Bird Elf on the Shelf Supplies Needed

Shake your tail feather because there are only a few supplies needed for this Elf on the Shelf Idea!

• The Elf on the Shelf
• Feathers (we bought this batch of feathers)
• String (we used a colored string, but I suggest clear fishing line)

Toy Story Elf on the Shelf Ideas

You’ve got a friend in me! 

Did you love our Toy Story Party Ideas? If you have seen and used this post, you must be a Toy Story fan, or at least have one in your home! This Toy Story Elf on the Shelf Idea was incredibly simple. We took our Buzz Lightyear toy and had him hug an Elf on the Shelf Woody. We have a woody doll in which the hat easily comes out. I worked hard to try to put the hat on Woody, but it wasn’t happening without some true craft supplies. Maybe I could have used adhesive Velcro on the hat and on the top of Elf’s head. It’s up to you if you wan to go that direction.

Elf on the Shelf Toy Story Supplies

• The Elf on the Shelf
• Buzz Lightyear Toy Figure
• Woody Toy Figure – you will need hat.

If you plan on doing some of these other ideas below consider getting wooden blocks, marshmallows, a Jessie Doll, a Mason Jar, Twine, a card game, and the Toy Story Buckaroo Game.

Elf on the Shelf Ideas with Toy Story 4 Forky

Our Toy Story 4 Forky is form the Toy Story 4 Forky Craft Kit. This Elf on the Shelf idea with Toy Story was really simplistic, mostly because we had everything we needed. I would suggest Forky is placed in a clean garbage can – don’t have last nights spaghetti in the can. Also use a trash can that not be used the entire day.

Forky, the Toy Story 4 spork, is known for climbing into the trash. He is constructed from a spork, googly eyes, a pipe cleaner, clay, and a Popsicle stick, and a rainbow sticker. He was created by Bonnie, during a difficult first day of kindergarten. Bonnie claims him as hew new toy, but Forky identifies himself as trash thus creating the challenge of keeping him out of the trash and alongside Bonnie.

We played on this challenge with Elf on the Shelf saving Toy Story 4 Forky from the garbage. “I’m not a toy. I’m a spork. I’m trash!”

Where to Buy Toy Story 4 Forky

Grab the entire gang for this Toy Story Forky Idea with your Elf on the Shelf. You really only need your Elf on the Shelf, a Toy Story 4 Forky and of course, trash! Perhaps make sure it is a can that will not need to be used that day! Can you imagine the trash piling up in the kitchen?

There are a few places of where to buy Toy Story 4 Forky. You can get a Forky already made or perhaps pick up a kit and make it yourself.

• Disney Pixar Toy Story True Talkers Forky Figure
• Toy Story 4 Craft Kit featuring Forky
• Toy Story Disney Woody & Forky

These stickers for our Elf on the Shelf Ideas with Photo Booth were found in our dollar bin at our local Michael’s Craft Store! New creative, funny, and original Elf Ideas daily.

Elf Ideas with Photo Booth Props

You can view our Elf on the Shelf Master List for a full list of ideas including every idea we have ever done. Additionally, we have  many more ideas coming, including this Elf Photo Booth Prop Idea.

For this idea you will need a Bendable Elf on the Shelf.  This will allow Elf to hold up the tooth picks for his photo booth props.

Elf on the Shelf Ideas with Photo Booth Props

While strolling the aisles of Michael’s (with three kids under two – okay it wasn’t a stroll, it was a race), I came across this adorable Photo Booth Sticker Book for only $1. Because I have been doing Elf on the Shelf Ideas since 2011, when I see something of this size my mind immediately races to Elf on the Shelf – it was a perfect fit! Additionally, once I was done with my Funny Elf Idea, I could share the sticker book with the kids who would have many of their own uses for it!

I added toothpicks to the Photo Props Stickers. When the bendable elf wasn’t holding the toothpick well, I inserted the pointy tip slightly into his red fabric – don’t worry, no elves were harmed in this funny elf idea. A few of the photo booth stickers were applied directly to our Elf.

Elf on the Shelf Photo Booth Supplies Needed

Spend only one dollar for this Elf on the Shelf Idea. You likely already have your elf and your toothpicks. Just pick up a Photo Booth Sticker Book at Michael’s Crafts.

• The Elf on the Shelf
• Photo Booth Sticker Book
• Toothpicks

Easy peasy, really simplistic – right?

Rudolph Family Elf on the Shelf Idea

Do this idea because it will make you laugh every time you look at the photo (and you will have a picture, because capturing this memory in your Timehop is inevitable!) Enjoy that forever photo!

Elf turned the entire family into Rudolph. We picked up Googly Eyes from Michaels and Red Pom Pom Noses from Michaels. They had smaller wiggly eyes but I liked how it make the eyes look large and buggish. I had poster putty to hold up the facial features.

After Elf was gone, I took everyone’s disguise off except for my second daughters. She often doesn’t pay attention to detail sin the home, details in general, and it stayed for a couple days while the rest of the family enjoyed the chuckle. She has such great humor that she let us keep it up longer! It makes me giggle when I walk by. If you have a child that is good with such humor too, consider leaving it up. Enjoy the laughter for as long as you can!
