Elfing Around

Sponsored by Tomoson.com

It’s 157 days until Christmas…not that I’m counting. After all, it’s July! Still, as the swamp cooler groans about the heat, I’m inside threatening the kiddos with “Santa’s watching you?” Then our very own elf arrived from Elfing Around and now I have some true believers!

We have a shelf elf that through the month of December gets hidden and the children delight in finding her.  A few nights in, my husband has lost interest and by Day 10, we’ve run out of places to hide her. Lisa Huckemeyer, the owner of Elfing Around, LLC, has some mad elfing skills because suddenly, I’m eager to start Elfing Around. Even my husband had a twinkle in his eye.

Elfing Around "Letter from Herbie Elf"

Elfing Around: “Letter from Herbie Elf, Jr.”

Elfing Around Postmark

Elfing Around is detailed..check out the postmark!

Elfing Around is an ADVENTURE. It starts with a “Letter from Herbie Elf, Jr.” it’s even in an “official” envelope. The letter is a teaser letting children know that a very special Elf will be arriving. The parent simply addresses the letter and makes it noticeable a few days before the moment of reveal.  I love events that have a build-up! Elfing Around is detail-oriented. The postmark is an authentic touch coming from “Santa”. I love it!

Elfing Around: Parent Adventure Guide Book

From here the fun really begins. Every detail is planned out. There’s no “Where can I hide the Elf tonight?” Elfing Around comes complete with a Parent Adventure Guide Book. I am truly impressed by the clever adventure awaiting. On the inside of the book there is an “Elf School” that gives guidance and tips for the night’s mischief, while the outside of the page has a note to include with the Elf. There’s no drama over the set up, each adventure takes 5-minutes or less and most use common household items so there’s no need for shopping lists.
