The Funniest & Most Creative Ideas to Move Your Elf on the Shelf

It's that time of year again! Any time now your Elf on the Shelf will be appearing, and you will be waking up in a panic, just after you've dozed off, to jump out of bed to move him before your kids wake up. This happens to me every year!

The Christmas elf brings so much happiness to my kids, so it's hard to hate the little guy. But I admit, moving him nightly gets old fast! This year I'm going to be better prepared!

Don't have an Elf yet? You can pick one up HERE.

To keep things simple, our elf doesn't arrive until December. If you're just starting out I highly recommend this schedule. Moving your elf night after night gets tiring, so waiting a little bit longer for him to make his appearance is key!

Coming up with fresh ideas for your elf is tough, but there's no need to stress! I've put together a list of the funniest, simple and creative ideas to move your Elf on the Shelf. There's a little something for everyone here; whether you want to put a little more work into it, or keep things simple but fun.

I hope you enjoy!
