Elf on the Shelf Gift Set and Other Elf Toys and Books
The Elf on the Shelf Gift Set Helps Start a Fun Family Tradition
The Elf on the Shelf Gift Set is a cute rhyming storybook with an accompanying Santa's elf. There are both boy and girl elf dolls available.
Each special elf works as a scout for Santa Claus, and every night he/she returns to the North Pole to report on who's been naughty and who's been nice. When the kids wake up, the elf is hiding in a new place each morning. It can be the start of a fun Christmas elf tradition for young and old alike. Read more below, or pick from one of the other elf toys shown here and start your own family elf tradition.

New DVD Tells "An Elf's Story" - Elf on the Shelf DVD now available
Whether you already love Elf on the Shelf or are just getting started, the new "Elf on the Shelf: An Elf's Story" DVD will be a great holiday movie to own, as it tells the tale of one of Santa's scout elves and his adventures helping a boy named Taylor rediscover his faith in Christmas magic.
The Elf on the Shelf Gift Set - A fun elf toy and book
My kids love this cute book and stuffed elf set. The only problem is that I need to remember to move the elf each night - and remember where I put him! One night our elf got lost at the North Pole and was missing for an entire day. I hid him at night and then we left early the next day for an all-day family gathering. So nobody looked for him in the morning. The morning AFTER the family gathering, our elf was nowhere to be found. He remained MIA for several hours until I remembered where I had hidden him.
So a word of caution to parents - don't let you elf get too good at hiding!

The Elf on the Shelf 19-Inch Stuffed Elf - Light skin tone stuffed elf toy
The Christmas shelf elf that comes in the Elf on the Shelf gift set is smaller and not as cute as the larger stuffed versions. My kids prefer the larger plush version.

Christopher Pop-In-Kins - Another helper like Elf on the Shelf
Like Elf on the Shelf, this story is about one of Santa's elves who watches over children to be sure they're behaving. This story was originally published back in 1985, so Christopher Pop-in Kins might be credited with starting the Christmas elf tradition.
Rudolph's Hermey the Elf Action Figure - Hermey the Misfit Elf from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Long before Elf on the Shelf came around, Hermey was helping Santa at the North Pole. Hermey the Misfit Elf may be one of Santa's best-known (former) elves. He and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer ran off together because the other elves and reindeer made fun of them, but when they returned, Hermey was able to achieve his dream of becoming a dentist.
Stuffed Elf - Boy - Elf toy is one of Santa's helpers
If you've already told your kids about the work of Santa's helper elves, you can bypass the gift books and grab an elf. These "secret" elves come in both male and female versions.
Elf Pet Costume - Could he pass as one of Santa's secret elves?
Don't let Fido miss out on the fun. Here are some cute elf dog costumes for the holidays!
If your elf has been doing his job, he has been reporting back to Santa Claus every night to let St. Nick know about all your child's good accomplishments this year. So make sure Santa sends a letter to your child and lets him or her know how proud Santa is.

Or for a full-service site that lets you choose one of dozens of letters or write your own text, try Santa's Official North Pole Mail.
Elf DVD - Will Ferrell is not your average Christmas elf
What's it like to be an elf at the North Pole? This movie won't explain the Elf on the Shelf tradition, but it's a lot of fun. If you haven't seen it, go rent it, buy it or borrow it from your neighbor. It's great for the whole family.
