The Elf on the Shelf®

Are you ready to adopt your own Scout Elf?

The Christmas Shop is extremely honoured to be a Santa Approved Official Elf on the Shelf Adoption Centre. 

Sent from the North Pole, The Elf on the Shelf® is a special scout elf who helps Santa Claus manage his naughty and nice lists. When a family adopts a scout elf and gives it a name, the elf receives its Christmas magic and can fly to the North Pole each night to tell Santa Claus about all of the day's adventures. Each morning, the elf returns to its family and perches in a different place to watch the fun. Children love to wake up and race around the house looking for their elf each morning.

There are two simple rules that every child knows when it comes to having an elf. First, an elf cannot be touched; Christmas magic is very fragile and if an elf is touched it may lose that magic and be unable to fly back to the North Pole. Second, an elf cannot speak or move while anyone in the house is awake!  An elf's job is to watch and listen.

Elves typically appear in their families’ homes at the beginning of the December. On Christmas Eve, the elves return to the North Pole with Santa Claus - until next year!

Bring the Christmas magic home to your family this year! 

Special Note:

You can tell Santa's Official Scout Elves apart from other elves at the North Pole because they arrive in their official solid red jumpsuit with their very own hard cover storybook, all in a keepsake gift box.
