Elf Pet and Fireplace......

It's that time of year again!  I do get some of my ideas from other posts, pins, and/or internet searches, I always try to make them my own in some way! 



 This year our elves introduced their elf pet!  The kids love it because the book tells them that they are allowed to hold and love the reindeer!




Last year our elves had a theme...elf jobs...the kids were given elf hats and jobs, which once learned they became honorary elves!  (previous posts will explain the activities from last year).


This year The elves decided to go with Responsibility...something a lot of people seem to lack nowadays.


Today Dec.1st was an introduction to what is in store!

Our elf Holly again wrote a poem related to their visit.

The Poem......

A couple of surprises this time around!
It was hard to do without making a sound.

We brought our pet reindeer with whom you can play!
We're hoping your parents will let her stay.

She's a big responsibility almost a chore.
Responsibility is what we chose to teach you all more!

Our tasks will be fun but a lesson they will teach!
Skills that will make nothing in life out of reach!

We'll teach patience and teamwork, plus other things too!
Things that some people struggle to do.

With teamwork we built you this fireplace!
Now go hang your stockings from its mantel face!

We hope you enjoy what the next 24 days have in store!
We love that we get to be here, with you, once more!

Love your elves,
Holly and Kringle





we live in Florida and do not have a fireplace so the kids loved it!  Our stockings are now hanging from our fireplace!......They named the reindeer Cinnamon!
