Elf on the Shelf- Sane forum style! Who’s keen? 🫶

Hi everyone!

I’ve been reflecting on how the Christmas period can be challenging for some of us, myself included. With that in mind, I was wondering if anyone would be up for some lighthearted fun this month?

Would anyone be interested in a game of Elf on the Shelf- Sane forum style? 😊

Your elf can be whatever you choose and you can share photos or creations whenever you like, there are no rules here, just the Sane guidelines ☺️. It’s all about fun, connection and some distraction. 🥰💜☀️

We’re starting a bit late since December snuck up on me 🤪, and honestly, I’ve never really played Elf on the Shelf before, so I had to Google when it actually starts and the general rules on how it works 🤭. The idea just popped into my head recently and I’m excited to see where this may go!

There are so many creative people here, and I cannot wait to see what you all come up with! (I’m not the most creative, but I do love a challenge hehe ☺️)

No pressure to join if it’s not your thing, feel free to tag anyone you can think of who might be interested or if you see this thread on the forum and it interests you, join in anytime 😊🙏

(Ps, this is only my second forum thread so hope this is okay to have created and again hope it lands where it’s meant to ☺️)

omg the balloon idea is so smart!! @Bow i've actually got some spare balloons so i might copy your idea hehe

@AlwaysMyself haha that's a fun car tow idea! i think i saw someone put an elf on their windscreen wipers not long ago 😆

@Chasingsunsets @AlwaysMyself pantry's a good idea, i'll stack up the nutella and biscoff, and then hide the elf behind there hehe

@Chasingsunsets I was telling my partner about this post and he came home from the service station with these.

These are Elf Mates

I will have to see if I still have the miniature games for the Elves to play. Lol

@Chasingsunsets Thank you for thinking of me. I do have that coin, as well as these PNC's. I am hoping to collect one each year, as they have brought them out the last two years, so I assume, they will be bringing out a new one each year.

@Shaz51 @Bunniekins @Dreamy @rav3n @Bow + everyone

@rav3n I didn't really think the frozen one through, but at the time, my daughter loved Frozen. We had to put it under hot water to try and thaw him out, and then of course he was saturated, which meant he didn't hide anywhere special, the next night. Lol

But it was so much fun with the daughter. If she was playing up, we would write her a note from the Elf, telling her he was not happy, and changes needed to be made etc. Lol She truly believed he was magical. That only lasted one year 😂

@AlwaysMyself I sure do. i wonder what they will get up to today. I hope they don't go through my coin collection. That could end in trouble. Lol
