i did that 4 1 video and about the reindeer for the other as we had rudolph stay for a few days.

bertie has returned and brought elf masks with him for kids to make. they found him sat in the tortoise enclosure with torts! (i cant put them in fridge to hibernate cos kids wouldn't understand!)

All my minded children are taken with Snow Toes too! (Ahhhhh)

He is going to do his first bit of mischief tonight ready for the morning - (Hiding in the freezer I think!)

He is also going to leave 6 elf masks to colour tomorrow after drama club - (should keep everyone quiet after dinner!!!!)

In the latest edition of simply knitting magazine issue 49
http://www.getknitted.com/acatalog/Simply_KnittingSection.html
is a jack frost knitting pattern, (blue and white in the middle of the page) in different colours he'd make the perfect elf, he has pointed ears and boots.
Too late for this year but for next year he'd be great.

Also there's a pattern for sackboy, I think he's a PS3 character?

Hi yummy mummy amy (can we just call you amy?) There's an elf mask here to print off and colour http://www.edupics.com/en-coloring-pictures-pages-photo-elf-mask-i6097.html
Husband thinks he's a bit evil - might look for another. Peppermint had a huge cotton wool snowball fight last night with all of emily's teds. I thought I'd be running out of ideas, but now i'm afraid I'll run out of time. Got some great little gingerbread house's today in b & m bargains for 99p I've got alittle kit somwhere to make your own so Peppermint is going to set a challenge to see who's looks the most like his :-)

Yes that's the mask template I printed off too! Snow Toes has left them a note tonight saying they gave him a head ache today cos they were so noisy, and that he's gone to sleep somewhere that reminds him of home. He also said that the mask looks like his friends from home, so if they could colour and wear them it will make him very happy!!!! :rotfl:
