Thanks maisiescamp, I've just ordered 4 (yes 4) for dd's teddies to wear next year (dd is teddy mad). dp and I are also planning for next year and picked up a few crafty/stationery bargains at Tescos today. I'll keep posting too if/when I find any more bargains.

Glad to be of help! I ordered 2 in the end as I keep forgetting that I will need to involve my DD2 more next year as she will 'get it!'

I picked mine up the other day and am very pleased especially for the price!

Happy New Year to all elves and owners! Sounds like everyone had great fun with their elves. Our elves couldn't get up to as much as I'd planned towards the end as I became quite ill. Spent most of boxing day and the day after in hospital!

My aim for this year is to be even more prepared, have treasure hunt clues pre-written, snowflakes already cut etc. As come the evenings I just didn't have the energy this year, it didn't help that in the week leading up to Christmas the kids were still awake when I was going to bed!!

The kids loved the elves. They were ok when they went home Christmas eve, what with the excitement of Christmas Day looming, but now they keep saying how much they miss them! So the elves are going to keep in touch by email/cards etc.

Happy to see people still posting and preparing for next Christmas!:)

Happy New Year to all of you! And many thanks for your wonderful ideas. This was the first year when our elf came and it made this December really special. My little one was very upset after the elf was gone, but I've promised that he'll send her letters from the North pole every month on 25th It's a good idea to prepare in advance, I didn't have enough time/energy for everything I wanted to do with our elf.

I'm in the middle of making a scrapbook for the kids now with all of the pictures taken of JJ Jingles antics and most of the pictures the kids are not aware of either.:D It will be delivered this week from him so the kids will have something to remember all the fun we had.;)
