Great tradition to start 
This is a very nice tradition to start. I look forward to introducing the elf around Thanksgiving. The book is awesome and the elf is cute too :2011-12-18 13:03:03
LOVE IT
My son is 2 and a half years old, and I can not even describe the amount of joy that this toy has brought into our house this holiday season. He loves the book, and waking up to see where his elf is hiding every morning! We live in a tiny apartment, and there are very few locations out of a destructive toddler's reach; but he doesn't seems to mind when the elf hides in the same spots again and again. My husband and I enjoy placing the elf in a new spot every night. It brings some Christmas cheer into the house this time of year, and my son's behavior has been better, too! I most definitely recommend this product! :2011-12-18 13:02:52
Elf on the Shelf
Loved the whole concept of the Elf on the Shelf; our son is 4, and he loved reading the story of the Elf the first night, and then every morning the first thing he wanted to do was 'see where Elfie was' after we moved him to a different place each night after he went to bed. Anyone w/ young children will have fun w/ this for Christmas. :2011-12-18 13:02:40
Buy This!
This has made our holiday so much fun! It arrived much earlier than expected and I look forward to passing this on to my daughter when she has children. (she is only 4 now) This is great, BUY IT!!! :2011-12-18 13:02:29
Elf on the she
Love it - got four - one for each of my kids to start the traditon with their kids and one for Nonnie & Poppie's house!!! :2011-12-18 13:02:16
More ideas on how to use the elf
We use the elf a little different than the book. Our elf arrives the night of thanksgiving while our daughter is asleep. He shows up with a small toy, dollar store or something very small, and then leaves every night to visit Santa and tell him how the day went. When he comes back the next day he drops of a small toy and shows up in a different place. We find this calms down the excitement from the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, Christmas Eve's gift is always Christmas PJ's and a good bye note. Yes she does get a gift every night but it something simple as a new pencil for school to even just a note of encouragement for something that may have happened that day. :2011-12-18 13:02:04
Never lose a child's heart
Wanted a fair skin, blue eyed elf for my blonde, blue eyed grandchildren which is hard to find. This elf is perfect and very well constructed. The book that accompies it is educational and adds the sense of reality for the non-believer! Pricing for the elf is the best I found in my 2 years of searching for it. My daughter puts it up the day after Thanksgiving and moves it every day. The children look for it first thing every morning and it adds to a positive and joyful discipline experience. They "know" they are being watched by Santa's elf and never know where the elf will show up. It is absolutely a family tradition that maintains a child's heart. I hope they never lose it. :2011-12-18 13:01:52
A beautiful family tradition has begun
We received the Elf On The Shelf 3 days ago and my children LOVE it!! Every morning they race down stairs to see who will find him first. This morning my 3 year old daughter spotted him before her big brother and sister, and the joy on her face was PRICELESS! The kids were already talking about his next hiding spot.
I don't know which is more fun- my kids searching for him -or- my husband and I finding fun places to hide him. Not to mention, the kids are being more mindful of their behavior now that they know Santa's helper is watching!! This is a great product and a great holiday tradition to begin!! :2011-12-18 13:01:41
The Must Have For Any Little One
This is an awsome book, a must have in every home with children. IT WORKS!!! The Elf watches the children day and night and reports to Santa while they sleep, watch your childs behavior shift from Naughty to Nice in an instant! Also fun because they get to see where the elf hid after getting home from reporting to Santa, in a new place every morning!!! GOTTA GET THIS ONE!!!! :2011-12-18 13:01:26
Fun tradition
I have two girls, ages 4 and 3. I bought this as a way to "remind" them to be good, that Santa is watching. We read the book the day after Thanksgiving and I put the Elf on the shelf. I moved it after they fell asleep and the tradition began! Each morning my daughter would wake me up and pull me around the house to find the Elf. The hardest part about this was remembering to move him. It was a fun, easy thing to do and my girls really got into it. I honestly don't think you have to buy this product to start the tradition but the book explains it all so that ties it all together. :2011-12-18 13:01:15
Great fun
Ok, I hate to say this but this toy is NOT meant to be a "big brother" and an infringement on children's right. Are you kidding? It's a story and a doll. Just like any other legend or story. My children Love, love LOVE this holiday tradition. It isnt really meant to force a child to behave - it's meant to pour a little more magic into Christmas. This isnt any different than telling a child that if they misbehave that Santa will give them coal. Seriously, parents need to lighten up. There is nothing more priceless than seeing your child eager to wake up and find where the elf is hidden next. Take the politics away from the tradition, please :2011-12-18 13:00:53
This works YEAR AFTER YEAR
I bought this elf and the book years ago. My daughter was probably 3, and she's going to be 9 this Christmas. Well I can't vouch for what will happen this Christmas, but up until now the elf has been a big hit.
It has been a huge surprise to me that 1) she still believes in our elf "Timmy" and has rationalized away all explanations for him not being real (e.g. he looks like a doll because Santa made him to look just like a doll") and
2) there is this unintended consequence that she and her little sister actually improve their behavior, and consider the possible consequences of bad behavior.
Now I have to tell you, I've got friends who have the Elf on the Shelf and it's not so effective. To achieve this level of magical sweetness, my husband and I make a real effort. (but SO worth it!) We read the book on Thanksgiving night. "Timmy" comes the next day (the day after Thanksgiving), and every night when they are asleep, we move him to a different place in the house, usually in our Great Room, which comprises our kitchen/dining/fireplace-Christmas tree room. Timmy is always out of reach, above the cupboards, in the Christmas tree, on a window ledge, hanging off the fan, perched on a wall clock, or in the fireplace. Timmy stays until Christmas Eve, when he disappears to help Santa with his job, and goes back with Santa to the North Pole until next year's post-Thanksgiving.
Ok my kids are so into it: they've written books and drawn pictures about Timmy, and they sometimes even go up and talk to him (which provides very helpful information for us parents)
So I highly recommend the Elf on the Shelf. It's really a pure and sweet childhood tradition.

Your very own Elf
Our book and Elf arrived in our home on Thanksgiving and my daughter eagerly read the book and watched us put Elfin on our TV. She knew from the book that each night Elfin would fly to the North Pole and report to Santa. We never scared her with that if she disobeyed he'd cancel Christmas, but said that he was watching her. Every morning she'd come out of her room with a huge smile on her face searching for Elfin. She is looking forward to seeing him arrive at our home this next year!
I got 2 extras for gifts for friends and family and it was a huge hit in their home too! :2011-12-18 13:00:26
An Additional Idea
This is such a wonderful tradition. Because I collect children's Christmas books, I place a different book with our elf each morning. Then, we read a new book together at bedtime. My children look forward to finding our elf and to having a new Christmas story :2011-12-18 13:00:15
Elf on a Shelf
We just received this as a gift. It is perfect for my 3 year old who is having constant struggles with being a good little boy as he grows more independent. We've named our elf and everyday we remind him that his elf is watching him and he instantly stops the negative behavior. He's even told his wish list for Santa to his elf. It's been a great motivational tool for improving his behavior when other techniques have failed. Brilliant idea :2011-12-18 13:00:04
A Beloved Family Tradition
We received our Elf on the Shelf last December, and he was an instant hit with my 3 little ones (2-6-8). They enjoyed deciding together on a name for him and then raced each morning to see where he was freshly positioned among the house. Always in a clever, funny & overall cute pose....he is fun & easy to help harness your child's imagination. Just don't forget to move him before you go to bed.....!!
The book is lovely and a nice read. I like the 70's, vintage illustrations and overall appeal. Reminds me of my childhood, I suppose. We are looking forward to our 2nd year with "Nuddy" our Elf...he will be reappearing in our home really soon! Although he is a well-contructed doll, I am happy that one of the 'rules' is that the children cannot touch him, or he loses his magic. That has been a blessing, as my children would toss him around if they could,then the dog would find him and he'd be a goner. So, thankgoodness for the sweet, endearing & protective rules the authors thought of. :2011-12-18 12:59:54
Every Elf Has a Price
Let me begin by admitting that I was a bit reluctant to let one of Santa's helpers into our home with the task of surveilling my five year old daughter. Would his fear-driven monitoring technologies and reports (he uploads data to the Fat Man every night) serve as a carrot or a stick to our kindergartener? Are these the kind of values we want to impart? We pulled the trigger and Larry began his stint as the eyes and ears of Santa two weeks ago.
Everything was going well... or so it seemed. Our daughter said goodnight to Larry each evening and then my wife and I moved him according to the supplied instructions. His new vantage point in the house allowed him to "get the goods" on our daughter every day until she worked out his new location and could adjust her behavior accordingly, so as to improve her chances of scoring big on Christmas.
And then it happened. Larry was out "shopping" one night (he generally stays out late) and I came across his laptop and Excel spreadsheet detailing my daughter's behavior. The workbook was open to the "naughty" tab and his notes covered everything from "not washing after wiping" to "picking one's nose" to "breaking wind in mixed company." Seriously? Who needs this kind of oversight? I knew it was time to bring the elf down a peg. I bided my time.
The opportunity presented itself last weekend at poker night. Four of my buddies and I gathered around our humble table to trade chips over a few hands of Texas Hold 'Em. Larry watched intently for a while before announcing that he wanted to "sit in for a few hands." Suffice it to say that Larry has no poker face whatsoever. Elves may also be color blind (not sure he can count either) and things quickly went from bad to worse for the poor little guy. By the end of the night, he was into me and my buddies for Two Large. "I wonder what Santa would think about all this?" I asked him pointedly.
Long story short, the reports on my daughter back to Santa have improved dramatically, and Larry has started down the long road of working off his debt by Christmas. I hope you can share the excitement of fabricating new chores each day for your own elf. We use an advent calendar to track the compound interest and keep things simple. Big fat five stars for this product! :2011-12-18 12:59:41
The Elf Is Coming to Our House Every Year
After hearing from friends and reading reviews how great this was, we bit the bullet and got it. I cannot say enough about how cute this was for our two boys (age 6 and 3). They bolted downstairs every morning to find the elf, and the oldest cried when he touched it accidentally because he thought it would lose its magic. The story and elf was the sweetest thing. Note, however, that parents have to remember to move the elf around every night, or come up with creative excuses for why the elf decided to come back from the North Pole into the same spot! :-). :2011-12-18 12:59:27
So much fun
My kids just received this Thanksgiving day as a gift and I am now ordering them for every child I know. It is such a cute idea. Santa sends the elf to watch the children and then the elf reports to Santa every night and comes back to a different spot in the house. My kids wake up with a running start to see who can find the elf first. The kids must name the elf and they really enjoyed that as well. It is such a nice tradition to help make the Christmas Season even more fun and special. I know it will be with our family for a very long time. :2011-12-18 12:59:17
This is a tradition that will carry on for generations
This is a tradition that will carry on for generations!
HOW IT WORKS:
The kit comes with an elf doll and a book. The book explains that Santa has sent an elf to watch over the children and the elf reports back to Santa each night. The kids get to decide the name for the elf together - this is a touch decision! You read through the book with your child, it explains all the rules, then each night you move the elf to a new spot. One of the rules is that the children cannot touch him - this is a great rule because although he's a sturdy doll, I think he might get loved out much too quickly if they were allowed! The author was so thoughtful to think of all these helpful rules.
Rules:
* The children cannot touch the elf or he will lose his magic
* The elf can listen to what the children tell him, but cannot talk back, that's Santa's law.
* The elf flies back to the North Pole each night and tells Santa what he has seen - when he comes back he goes to a new spot in the house.
The kids start searching for the elf immediately when they wake up! Knowing Santa is watching has definitely motivated them to be a behave a bit better! This cute little tradition makes the Christmas season more fun. It's a very special tradition in our house. I love that the book has an old fashioned feel to it, the illustrations are wonderful.
CONS:
* Your children will ask you every night from Halloween to Thankgiving when the elf is coming back!
* You have to remember to move the elf every night! Sometimes this is a bit of a challenge for us. :) However, our elf does sometimes just get comfy in the spot he's in, so he must have decided to come back to the same spot. :2011-12-18 12:59:05
