The Elf on the Shelf book was recommended by a long time client. I must say its a little pricey but worth it in the means of bribery and getting a little help around the ranch. After reading the story a few times, Brisla has realised every action of helpfulness is appreciated. The elf travels to the North Pole every night to inform Santa if you have been naughty or nice for that day. In our house we have modified this little story. If you have been helpful and nice the elf leaves a little gift in your advent calendar. We found out last night someone awoke on the wrong side of the bed, (not Brisla) because there was no prize in our calendar. I'm excited to have this new tradition in our family and cant wait till next year when Adalyn can take part in the festivities. I have a feeling it will be a challenge for the mischievous one. I will love to see this in action.
It's something they will always remember, I'm sure :)
