I do this but with a reindeer called Gerald. He arrives on the doorstep at the beginning of December and he is placed somewhere where he can see the children. He comes with a letter from Santa explaining that he is one of Santa's helpers and needs to report back to Santa every night on how the children have been behaving. But every night when we are all asleep he gets up to mischief. He climbs the Christmas tree, gets into the biscuit cupboard and starts eating the biscuits, has a tea party with the toys in the playroom etc etc. All this is photographed. The children can't wait to look at the camera in the mornings to see what Gerald has been up to in the night. He is also in a different place each morning. The children know that they can talk to him but they are not allowed to touch him.They LOVE him He goes back to the North Pole on Christmas Eve with santa when santa comes. The first year I started this both kids were in tears on Christmas morning when they realised he had gone, oops , they're okay now though because they know he will be back again next year.

What a lovely idea, I've not heard of this before but it's a shame there are no packs left

Lots of ideas on Pinterest of what to do with him/her
Got mine from the book depository
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Creepy little elves who come in the house and do mischief at night. No thank you I spend all my days stopping my monkeys from getting into mischief.
Why can they be nice elves who come in and make me shoes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When someone tells you nothing is impossible, tell them to go slam a revolving door

From what I've seen it's more likely to drink it.

Hey, why not start them young getting used to the surveillance society.
Actually, since it's a US website, I'm amazed they're not deploying Elf Reconnaissance Drones.
