Elf on the Shelf

Fell asleep and forgot to find a new home for your kids' Elf on the Shelf? Try one of these handy (and somewhat plausible) explanations.

It's possible the novelty might wear off. But for now, it’s boatloads of fun, and gives us all something extra to look forward to in the mornings.

Elf on the Shelf has shown up in all kinds of surprising places, but choose your spot unwisely and you could be putting your family in danger.

"Keeping up the charade every December is exhausting. Choose one, kids: Elf on the Shelf or Dinner on the Table."

We kind of feel like the Grinch saying this, but these elf ideas are a little too far outside the box (or should we say shelf) for us.
