Now that you have all the tips and ideas for planning your own Christmas activity, let’s talk about some fun clues.

What are some clues for a scavenger hunt?

While a Christmas scavenger hunt checklist is fun (see some in our Christmas Traditions), having Christmas scavenger hunt clues is just a bit more fun. Kids will race around the house solving Christmas riddles. It just makes it more interactive and engaging.

Take a look at some of these fun Christmas rhyming riddles we include as clue cards in our printable Christmas scavenger hunt.

Clue 1

Ready or not, this Christmas treasure hunt has begun. Find the first clue where the stockings are hung.

Clue 2

Christmas carolers sing beautifully in a choir. Go to the family car and look behind the tire.

Clue 3

Red and white stripes and a cool minty taste; these striped candies, they never go to waste!

Clue 4

To stay on Santa’s nice list, don’t be a grouch. You next clue can be found, under the cushion on the couch.

Plus sixteen more for a total of twenty Christmas clues for a scavenger hunt. You choose the order for your holiday fun.

What are good prizes for a Christmas scavenger hunt?

There are two ways to incorporate gifts or small trinkets with holiday scavenger hunt. You can have a gift with each new clue or keep a big gift, like a Christmas Eve Box, for the end of the treasure hunt.

Small Prizes

Small gifts are perfect for a scavenger hunt. You can have a small trinket for each scavenger hunt seeker. Christmas party favors or candy canes are perfect to place with each clue. Perhaps your small prizes can be placed together into something larger. For example, have all the ingredients and supplies needed to create a gingerbread house or cookies for Santa.

Christmas Eve Box

You might ask what’s in a Christmas Eve Box? A Christmas eve box is a gift given the day before Christmas. Often it contains Christmas pajamas, a Christmas movie, a Christmas book, hot chocolate and other night before Christmas ideas.

Christmas Presents

If you hold a Christmas scavenger hunt on Christmas morning, consider having a Christmas present with each new clue. This would make a fun Christmas morning activity for the kids and instead of the Christmas tradition of opening all the presents underneath the Christmas tree, you are moving around the house finding a new present with each clue card.

Elf on the Shelf

If you have an Elf doll, an Elf scavenger hunt is the perfect idea. Simply have your Elf on a Shelf bring the first clue and then let your kids hunt for the rest of the clues. You can use the Christmas scavenger hunt below or use a similar treasure hunt meant for an Elf on the Shelf scavenger hunt.

How to Plan a Christmas Scavenger Hunt

The first step in planning a Christmas scavenger hunt is printing a copy of the Christmas scavenger hunt clues. You can download the festive printable PDF here. It contains both clues & an answer key.

Once you have those printed out, you’ll cut them apart and choose which clues work before the the locations you want to include in your Christmas scavenger hunt. You can also make sure the fun last longer by making sure you include more cards.

The cards are Christmas themed with cute patterns and rhyming clues that will take players all through out the house looking for their next clue.

The second step is to place the clues around your house, yard or apartment. You can be as creative as you want with this part. You can make it easy by placing the clues in obvious places or get creative and hide them in harder to find spots.

If you’re hiding the clues inside, we recommend that you put them in locations that are safe and not too difficult to get to. You can also pair teens or older kids with younger children, so all hunters are on an equal playing field.

The third step is to gather your family or group of friends together and explain the rules of the game. You’ll want to go over how many people will be playing, what the goal of the game is and any other important details.

Once participants understand the rules, you’ll be ready to start the game. If you’re playing as a team, when all the clues are found, the team that has found the most clues wins the game.

If you’re playing as an individual, the first person to find all of the clues and make it back to the starting point is the winner. You can even set a stop watch or give a time limit and let each person run the clues one at a time.

No matter how you play, a Christmas scavenger hunt is a great way to get everyone in on the holiday fun.

With these simple steps, you’ll have everything you need to plan your own Christmas scavenger hunt.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

What is Elf on the Shelf? This is Elf on the Shelf Explained in one minute. Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. This holiday tradition has an Elf on the Shelf book and a Scout Elf doll. The Scout Elf book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits.

While Elf on the Shelf lives at the North Pole, he begins visiting families every Christmas season checking on naughty or nice behavior of children. The Elf on the Shelf first visits each Thanksgiving. Each family is able to name their special elf. Each evening, Scot Elf returns from the North Pole to report to Santa on a family’s behavior. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. You must find him!

It is important VERY IMPORTANT, you do not touch The Elf on the Shelf or her/his Christmas magic will be lost! The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve.

Elf on the Shelf Rules

There are a few rules when it comes to adopting an Elf.

Name your Elf on the Shelf

Give your North Pole visitor a name. Look at our 50+ ideas of Elf on the Shelf Names.

Do Not Touch Elf on the Shelf

Elf looses his magic if he is touched by humans. Do not touch Elf on the Shelf. If you need to move Elf (for example, he/she has fallen) use our Magic Elf Grippers to move Elf. Also read about Elf being touched in the In Case of Elftastrophe an Elf on the Shelf Emergency Guide Book.

Elf Moves at Night

No matter what, Elf cannot move when you are watching. Elf on the Shelf moves at night when everyone is asleep. There may be a few occasion when Elf will need to move during the day when the kids are at school. Sometimes Elves fall asleep too. Look at our list of Reasons Elf Did Not Move plus a tip to make sure he/she moves each day.

Elf Cannot Talk

Elf is always listening, but Elf cannot talk. Tell Elf about your day, about your Christmas Wish List. You can even leave notes for Santa with Elf and he/she will deliver them at night to Santa Claus.

Elf Must Return Home at Christmas

Elf must go back to his home in the North Pole at Christmas. Look for a postcard. Elf might send you mail on his vacation or from his home! Typically Elf leaves on Christmas Eve night with Santa on the sleigh. Some elves stay and watch you open presents, returning to their home with magic the next day.

Can parents touch the elf on the shelf?

Frequently it’s asked, can adults touch Elf on the Shelf. Parents, it’s important to follow the rules of Elf on the Shelf. Elf must never be touched. However, if Elf has an accident or falls, it is important to move Elf from any dangerous spots (for example, the floor where your pet dog might pick it up.) You can use these Magic Elf on the Shelf grippers, so parents can touch and move Elf on the Shelf without actually “touching” the Elf.

Parents may also use a gloved hand OR if Elf must be touched with the skin of a human, Elf should sit out for another 24 hours.

Attention Parents: See the list of frequently asked questions at the Official Elf on the Shelf Page.

What do I do when my Elf on the Shelf falls on the floor? Download Magic Grippers free Elf on the Shelf printable for your kitchen tongs. This elf printable was especially designed to prevent magic loss allowing an adult to touch Elf on the Shelf after a fall.

Elf on the Shelf Magic Grippers Printable

It’s another year and another season of having an elf visitor. If you are new to Elf on the Shelf, you need a tool to move an Elf on the Shelf doll should a major fall happen. In this post, we provide you with rules for Elf on the Shelf and a resource for moving Elves.

First, when looking for new ideas, visit our Elf on the Shelf Ideas. We also love sharing Elf on the Shelf Printables including magic grippers.

Kids and parents, let’s talk. It is important to know the Elf on the Shelf Rules. One of the major rules for Elf on the Shelf is Elf must never be touched. If Elf is touched, his magic is lost and he cannot get back to the North Pole to return to Santa.

As a mother of five, I know the fear on kids faces when you found yourself between a rock and a hard place. Our Elf has fallen to the floor. The risk was getting trampled and if we had a dog, we would also run the risk of him getting chewed up. Unfortunately for my family, we had to delicately walk around Elf that one day… we do recall that day until we got this resource!

Tip: Read more about Elf on the Shelf being touched in the In Case of Elftastrophe an Elf on the Shelf Emergency Guide Book.

Can adults touch Elf on the Shelf?

Elf rules are not adjusted at any time. Often people ask what do I do when my Elf on the Shelf falls on the floor? Even with a fall, adults cannot touch Elf on the Shelf. However, because there are times where Elf really needs to be relocated, there are solutions for moving Elf on the Shelf after a fall. You mgiht ask yourself, what do I do if Elf on the Shelf falls. You use Elf on the Shelf Magic Grippers printable. You never use your hand to move an Elf.

Elf on the Shelf Magic Grippers Printable

If Elf on the Shelf is touched, his/her magic is lost to return to the North Pole. Elf can be moved using Magic Elf on the Shelf Grippers. Download your North Pole Grippers in our FREE Elf on the Shelf Printables.

This printable doesn’t disappoint. After that one day on the floor, this idea came as a resource to my family when the Elf fell and everyone was afraid to touch him for fear he would loose his magic. It keeps you from touching elf and keeps your kids from freaking out.

Adults attach this free printable to your kitchen tongs. In our kitchen we have a set of red kitchen tongs which fits the Christmas season perfectly. This makes the tongs specially designed to prevent magic loss after a great fall! That way the next time your Elf falls, no one has to panic about him spending the entire day on the floor!

What makes these Elf prescriptions great is this gives ~~Elf~~ mom the freedom to sit out for two days… by orders of Santa!

Reasons Elf on the Shelf Didn’t Move

We have a long list of reasons Elf on the Shelf didn’t move. Was Elf on the Shelf under the weather? Was bad behavior recognized? Was magic lost from touch?

For our Rx prescriptions, these are the reasons supplied.

Behavioral Warnings:

Broken Leg: No moving for two days. Elf tripped on your stuff. Clean up!

For this Elf prescription, consider unique Elf on the Shelf crutches ideas and grab this pair of miniature doll crutches.

Magic Lost: No moving for one day. Don’t touch elf!

If Elf was touched by mistake or even fell, don’t forget our magic elf grippers!

Cute Elf Idea:

Reindeer Flu: Stay put for two days.

Step it up! If you are really creative, use our reindeer costume. Perhaps dressing as as reindeer gives Elf reindeer flu! See our other Elf on the Shelf Reindeer Ideas!

This makes your life easier because it gives your children a warning, provides a creative elf idea, and/or allows all to rest from the anxiety of “where is Elf now” or “what should I do with Elf!?”

35.) Take a lasting piece of the ocean home with you. Did you know you can make casts of handprints and footprints with sand? Make a Sand Hand or Footprint Cast from Crafting a Green World. These handprint decorations could make cute mementos and memories from the trip.

Tarp Beach Pool for Kids

36.) Easily make a beach pool so kids can still enjoy the water on days where there are rough waves or strong tides. Idea from In Lieu of Preschool.

Beach Bathtub for Kids

37.) This works best at a public beach that is not too crowded. Store your beach toys in a large Rubbermaid container. When you get to the beach, remove the toys and fill a large plastic bin with water at the closest shower. Keep the bin filled while you play during the day. The water will warm up in the sun. When you are ready to go, grab a bar of soap and bathe the kids in your Rubbermaid container. Fill back up with toys and drive home. This is great for getting the kids clean before they climb back into your car!

No Mess Beach Toys Holder

38.) A Mesh Basket for Beach Toys also works great for preventing mess. This shakes the sand off immediately to keep the bag and your toys sand-free. Idea from the Idea Room. Grab yours HERE.

Sand Play-Doh

39.) Take the beach home with you and make your own DIY Beach-themed playdoh! The kids will love this Sand Play Dough Tutorial beach hack from Mama Papa Bubba.

Seashell Craft

40.) If your family is anything like mine, you leave the beach with more shells than you know what to do with. Instead of letting them sit around, try this Melted Shell Crayon Art from Artful Parent. You can store them all in a glass jar or vase for beautiful, colorful room décor at home.

Make your own DIY advent calendar with these cute advent calendar sticker. These free printable number stickers are perfect for your homemade calendar countdown. These 1-24 advent calendar labels are quick and easy to download and print onto sticker paper. Add with advent calendar fillers and a Christmas bible verse for a fun holiday craft.

We had so much fun with the 25 Homemade Advent Calendars we wanted to create a freebie of our own. Pick up these free Advent Calendar Stickers and have fun creating our homemade calendar. These stickers have a wood, gold, cream color palette. First, lets talk about what is an advent calendar and how to make your own.

Do Advent Calendars go to 24 or 25?

Well first let’s address this common question. How many numbers does an Advent Calendar have? There answer is 24 as you will begin a calendar on December 1st and end on Christmas Eve. The goal of an Advent Calendar tradition is to count down the days UNTIL Christmas. However, it’s not uncommon for you to have the number 25 as some want to also celebrate the advent calendar season on Christmas day too. You do, you. 24 or 25, both Advent calendar recognition the anticipation of Christmas, aka the birth of Christ.

What you need to make a DIY Advent Calendar

You don’t have to be an expert woodsmith to make an advent calendar. You can quickly put together this Christmas countdown by grabbing a few supplies around your home and downloading our free stickers. This is a fun Christmas craft to do with the kids. In addition to the nativity, it quickly tells the story of Christmas as you anticipate the birth of Jesus.

Supplies

If you are a crafter, it’s easy to pull together this homemade advent calendar. Grab many items from your craft supply closet.

The items including in this DIY Sticker advent calendar include…

brown paper bags
card stock/paper or sticker sheets paper
1.5 hole punch
scissors
twine or string
Christmas washi tape
glue stick or glue
mini clothes pins
mini ornaments
free Christmas advent calendar printable (see below

The best paper bags are mini kraft paper bags though you can use brown lunch bags too.

Directions

String the twine of choice across in a length to fit 24 bags. I used a wooden picture frame and measured one string across my frame to see how many bags would fit on each row – in my case, I could get 6 bags on a row for a total of 4 rows.

Place your treat/gift in your bags and fold. Place Washi tape down the center for decoration.

Stick (sticker paper) or glue (card stock paper) number on bag. We prefer the bags in numerical order, but you make a random collage of numbers out of order.

Clip each bag to your twine/string with clothes pins. Start another row.

Decorate with mini ornaments or perhaps fun Christmas lights.

Tips: Depending on what you are placing inside the bags (weight) you may need to use push pins or something more secure to hold the string on your surface. A nice suggestion would to use a framed cork board behind your frame.

Ideas for Advent Bags

Each advent bag will have a small treat or prize in side. Consider candy or a special note for your child to allow screen time or dinner alone with mommy, a trip to the dollar store etc. In the spirit of the holiday you could write scripture for your child to look up and reflect on with a treat.

Dollar Tree Toys
Ornaments
Christmas Bible Verses that tell the Nativity story
Candy
Cookies
Small Toys
Christmas Party Favors
