Christmas is a magical time of the year. How often have you lain in bed,
visions of sugar plums dancing through your head? Maybe you've began to
gently drift into a dream when, suddenly, you realize . . . you didn't
move the elf!
That darn elf. Making you get out of bed when you're all snuggled up
after a long day of gift-wrapping. But you know that if you don't move
it, the kids will begin to unravel the Christmas secrets you've worked
so hard to preserve over the years! Before you know it, they'll think
Santa isn't real and they'll be all grown up. Fine, you say to
yourself, I'll get up and move the freakin' elf. However, as time goes
on, your kids start to notice the elf's moving to the same spots over
and over, doing the same old things. It starts to become less
believable.
For when you're stuck in this predicament, author Jason Deas has
developed 101 different ideas of what to do with your Christmas elf. Get
St. Nick's assistants off the shelf and into a variety of creative
situations that will amaze and amuse your children:
Make your elf some skis for water skiing and snow skiing
Set up your elf like he's been working out all night long
Put your elf in a boat in the bathtub
Create a drum set with a few cans, pots, plastic containers, and other
odds and ends

Filled with Christmas spirit and humor, 101 Things To Do With Your
Christmas Elf is your handbook to surviving December and making sure
you keep your little holiday helper on the move.
