Our family enjoys this tradition and are excited for our son to begin to be a part of it. In fact, our elf tends to be very creative in how she appears each morning from Thanksgiving through Christmas day. She is fairly mischievous. We thought we would share our Elfie Snowflake daily on our Facebook page and a couple here on the Windy Pinwheel website through an image gallery and hope you will share your stories of your Elf on the Shelf with us on Facebook as well.

I ordered my Elf on the Shelf, but have yet to receive it. My elf will be quite a surprise to the grandchildren when they come to visit. Thanks for the suggestion.
At first I wasn’t quite sure about the Elf on the Shelf, but after reading what it was about, I think it is a cute idea, and considering you get your elf, a book and a keepsake box, the price isn’t all that unreasonable. I do think that you wouldn’t want to wait to give this as a Christmas present, but enjoy your elf prior to Christmas to help celebrate the holiday season instead.
Exactly, Karen. The Elf on the Shelf arrived at our door with the ring of a door bell. Our child, A, answered the door and she found “Elfie Snowflake” our own Elf on the Shelf. That’s a good way to do it, if you’re looking for a way to introduce your child to the idea.
