The Elves are coming, the Elves are coming! It's almost time and if you (like me) need some fresh idea this year we have teamed up with The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition to pull together some of the favourite ideas, including some Aussie inspired ideas for your Elf this holiday season.

Check out some of our previous Elf on the Shelf ideas

Elf on the Shelf Ideas

Life's a Beach

Australia has some of the best beaches in the world, so it is so surprise that Scout Elves love to soak up Australian beaches when they return down under. To recreate an iconic summer setting, your Scout Elf needs some brown sugar or coconut, a face washer or scrap of material and some elf-sized glasses (find at craft stores)

Breakfast fit for an Elf

Scout Elves love enjoying a good North Pole Breakfast™. For an Australian twist your elf can whip up vegemite on toast and an ice-cold milo. Make sure you leave out the vegemite jar, the bread, milk and milo!

Sick Day

Even Scout Elves get sick! Sometimes flying between the North Pole and your home each night can be tiring for your Scout Elf and they need a sick day under the watchful eye of their Elf Pets friends. Your Elf can use a tissue box and a face washer for a bed. Don’t forget to leave some tissues out for your Elf!

Create Christmas Cookies

Icing, sprinkles and cookies—oh my! Your Scout Elf got busy baking and left out all the items needed to deck out your own specially-shaped Christmas cookies. But that’s not all, your elf also left you a note asking you to pitch in and decorate the cookies during your very own cookie decorating party!

Christmas time camping

Your Scout Elf can take a well-deserved break from seasonal duties with a summer campout! Your elf can easily create an outdoor oasis with this tent printable, small twigs, material scraps, cellophane (orange or yellow) and mini marshmallows. Make sure it’s not a fire ban day!

Reindeer Chocolate Milk

Everyone loves chocolate milk, especially when you and your Scout Elf drink it together! All you need is: Clear mugs, Chocolate milk, Paper straws, Orange pom-poms, Googly eyes, Brown pipe cleaners, Tape.
