Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Box

To let your Elf on the Shelf practice proper quarantine guidelines, you need this Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Box. Your North Pole Visitor will arrive in an Elf on a Shelf Quarantine Box and remain in the box for 2 weeks (following CDC social distancing guidelines, of course!)

Pro tip: you can find the cutest Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Boxes on Etsy. This one from Theba Handmade is adorable and affordable. Make sure to add yours to your cart soon! In most cases, the boxes don’t include an Elf on the Shelf. Etsy typically takes longer to ship than sites like Amazon, so order early to get yours on time for arrival day.

Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Jar

Don’t want to spend money on a quarantine arrival kit? Easy! Using a mason jar, create a 2020 Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Jar. All you need is a mason jar and your Elf! Put your Elf doll inside and decorate the jar however you see fit.

We made our own Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Jar. We added a little sign that says, “Elf Isolation House” and a countdown to when Elf could get out. Your kids will look forward to crossing out the days and getting closer to Elf’s release date!

If you want to step up your Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Jar, you can add this DIY Elf on the Shelf Quarantine Jar vinyl. It has a 14-day countdown on the back, so you don’t have to create your own sign. It’s all right there on the jar!

The Elf Quarantine Jar is no longer available, but find similar Elf on the Shelf Isolation Jars on Etsy.

Elf on the Shelf Quarantine House

Elf on the Shelf Explained

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.
