Elf Magic ~ A Christmas Tradition

With Christmas only a short time away, there are all kinds of magical things happening around here. Gifts are magically appearing under our tree, goodies are mysteriously getting baked during the night and something has certainly been making a mess around here. Maybe all of these happenings have something to do with Princess P asking Santa for an elf to come visit this holiday season?
Yes, you heard correctly. Shortly after we returned home from Thanksgiving vacation, Princess P asked Santa if an elf could come visit our home for Christmas. To lure the Elf in, Princess P and I left out the Elf's favorite snack of crackers and ice water (crackers sound like crunching snow and the ice water is melting North Pole Snowflakes) on the counter and went to bed. When we awoke a couple of mornings later, we found that Santa had heard about Princess P's request and sent Caroline the Elf Magic Elf all the way from the North Pole to visit P! Caroline the Elf brought her very own SnowCase that will ensure a comfortable stay while at our home, a North Pole Passport (which is a must for travel!), a Travel Ticket/Boarding Pass on the Santa's Elf Express and a change of clothes that can be stored in the closet of her SnowCase!
However, when Caroline the Elf arrived, she made sure that she wasn't going to go unnoticed! She somehow go into the bag of apples, grapefruits and tangerines and made a large smiley face out of them in the kitchen floor! When Princess P found her, she was sitting atop one of the grapefruits just waiting for someone to find her mess! Needless to say, P was in a state of shock! Not only did Santa send one of his Elves to our home, but the elf came to life during the night!

The next night, Princess P excitedly sprinkled some of the Magic North Pole Snowflakes on Caroline the Elf to bring her to life. When Princess P raced out of bed that morning, she found Caroline in the Christmas tree holding a Santa ornament. Even though she is having fun at our house, I guess she misses the big guy up north! Which is completely understandable!
During the day, Princess P and Caroline the Elf Magic Elf play together and go on all types of adventures. Princess P loves to change her clothes (over and over again!), play with her in her SnowCase and show her off to all of her other stuffed to animals.

Even though Caroline's visit is short (she will return to the North Pole with Santa on Christmas Eve to help deliver toys around the world), Princess P is having so much fun with her! I know she will be greatly missed during the year, but this gives Princess P something to look forward to next year when another Elf Magic Elf will come visit. Elf Magic is a tradition I wish I had when I was a child. Although, I have really enjoyed watching the magic through Princess P eyes!

The Elf Magic tradition usually starts around the Thanksgiving holiday, but if your child still really wants an elf to come visit, it isn't too late! There are several "travel ticket options" to get an Elf to your home on time! And, while you are there, be sure to check out adventures that other families have had with their elves!
