A postcard from our ELF!! I can't explain to you the excitement that statement has caused in this house. Imagine the face of your child seeing a vacation postcard from their elf!
This past week my 2 daughters received a postcard in the mail from their Elf On A Shelf Elf, Jingles. The sheer thrill that this little card has created is truly amazing. To see the face light up on 2 little girls faces all because of a post card!
The card assured them that he is well and reminded us all how close Christmas was, only 4+ months away. In a child's eyes, 4 months is NOTHING and has no tangible evidence of when Santa or Jingles will be coming back.
Of course now that the postcard has arrived, it has started massive conversations about when Jingles will come back, where he will show up, will he come for the 1st day of school? Etc. This elf has become a family member now, everyone anticipating his arrival.
One of the fun topics that did come up was his clothing, possibly buying him some new duds to wear around. Whether he would like it if we surprised or enticed him with a new outfit before he arrived? Maybe a special outfit each week of Christmas to change it up a little :) Mackenzie, my 4 year old would like him to "stand out" and be special when he goes back to the North Pole, as not to blend in with the other elves. Elf Outfitters has aprons for helping cook the holiday cookies, tutus, sleeping bags, and so much more! And if you look really close, you might even find a way to get your kid's elf to send them a post card!
