Naughty Elf Making Snow Angel

Elves Behavin' Badly: Introduction & Ideas

With so many tasks and chores to juggle over the festive season, an extra pair of hands (or pointy ears) is always appreciated. Sent straight from the North Pole to keep an eye on who’s naughty or nice, the Elves Behavin’ Badly are cheeky little characters guaranteed to entertain the kids and encourage good behaviour throughout December.

If you’re looking for Elves Behavin’ Badly with a twist, here are twelve funny and imaginative ways to stage your Christmas elf for maximum giggles.

The Arrival

Kick off the fun with a magical entrance. Create a sleigh for Elfie and Elvie using a shoebox or toy sled, and write a welcome message for them to hold. Lay down fairy lights in a runway or teleportation circle pattern to add a touch of enchantment.

Sign It

Give your elf a voice by leaving notes in dainty handwriting. Use paper and whiteboards, or even write messages in flour. Kids will love reading what their mischievous elf has to say each day.

Little Graffiti Artists

Your elves have taken inspiration from Banksy! Draw silly moustaches, glasses or hats on the glass frames of family photos. Let your elf hold the pen, and don’t forget to use a marker that wipes off easily.

Spillages

Oops! Looks like someone has been clumsy. Stage a funny mess using condiments, cereal, or even a tipped-over cup of water. For easy clean-up, fake the mess with craft materials or coloured paper to avoid waste.

Makeshift Snow

When Elfie feels homesick, he loves to make snow using plain flour. Dust the kitchen counter, lie him down, and shape a tiny snow angel around him. It’s a festive scene that’s quick to set up and sure to delight.

Building Snowmen

Mini marshmallows make perfect snowman bodies. Use cocktail sticks to hold them together and add chocolate chips or icing for buttons and faces. It’s a sweet scene, and you can even eat the leftovers.

Bathroom Sink Fishing

One of the first places your children visit in the morning, the bathroom sink is ideal for an elf surprise. Float a few plastic fish and give your elf a mini fishing rod. Write a toothpaste message reminding the kids to brush their teeth.

Making Friends

Elves Behavin’ Badly love meeting the other toys. Set up a tea party with dolls, teddies, or action figures. Or create a dramatic face-off between new arrivals and existing residents for some added drama.

Robbers

Caught red-handed! Whether they’re stealing sweets or raiding the piggy bank, your elf can play the role of a festive troublemaker. Use chocolate coins, cookie crumbs, or even toy money to set the scene.

All Bandaged Up

After all that mischief, someone was bound to get a bump. Use plasters and cotton pads to treat Elfie’s injuries. You can even tape up their mouth to stop them from revealing secrets about the naughty or nice list.

Bed Time

Even elves need to rest. Use tissues, socks, or small boxes to create a cosy bed. Tuck them in during the day so they can recharge for another night of cheeky antics.

Back to the North Pole

As Christmas Eve arrives, it’s time for the elves to report back to Santa. Set up their sleigh again and create a farewell scene. Add a letter saying goodbye and, if the kids have been especially good, leave a small parting gift in a festive box.

Whether you're a seasoned elf expert or new to the fun, these Elves Behavin’ Badly ideas will keep the magic alive every morning.
