Christmas elf activities.........

berryjingles

I've actually got 3 main elves as I've got 3 children. Buddy Jingles, Holly Berry and Buddy's sister Bell Jingles. As DD2 is too young to understand this year Bell is only going to come for a quick visit, probably on the last day, she will then visit 'properly' next year. So DD3 isn't left out though, Buddy is bringing his dog Snowy Woof-Woof this time, so she'll have something to cuddle! Also, it will be something extra and different to look forward to next year. We also have Gingerbread Cookie who will visit for a couple of days each year to make mince pies and do special baking things!

Bell and Gingerbread need some a few alterations to their outfits (they weren't actually elves when I got them!) but when they're finished will put them on facebook.

Bell is also going to have a Christmas fairy friend called Wish Starbright who will hopefully visit next Christmas for a short while (I haven't got her yet), she will probably turn up on top of the Christmas tree! On my blog I've even listed Holly as having a cat, so if I get short of ideas in a couple of years, she can visit and get up to cat-like mischief, opening a tin of tuna and drinking milk for example!

As you can tell I'm taking this very seriously lol! But I love it and my oldest 2 are nearly 8 and 6 so will appreciate the details. I intend doing this for years to come so will need to keep injecting new ideas. Even when kids are grown up hopefully we will carry on, maybe taking it in turns to make the elves do funny/outrageous things and try and out do each other! Otherwise it will be a sad day when the elves visit for the last time.:(

lexuslass hope you have luck in finding some elves, i think there are a lot like mine about but when I saw them I knew the kids would love them!

knithappens I look forward to seeing Pingu!

Wow! Sorry for the extremely long post!
