Hens! - Elf on the Shelf

Hens, your EOTS idea in the post below is hysterical!!! What other things have you done this year? (obviuosly I am trying to steal them!) Love the toga party!!

Aw, thanks!

Angry power line lady and the toga party have been the best ones this year. The elf has also read a Christmas book to a bunch of assorted action figures and stuffed animals, sat on the piano keys holding a microphone, ziplined from the second floor to the first, brought the kids a bottle of Frosty brand cherry limeade soda (no need to call CPS--I promise my kids only get soda like 1 or 2 times a year), built a Christmas tree out of Duplos, and then just kind of hung out random places a couple of days.

Last year the biggest hits were hanging DS1's underwear on the Christmas tree (this is apparently the funniest thing ever if you are 4) and a staged marshmellow snowball fight with various action figures.

I realize this makes me sound crazy, but it entertains us all, and I don't really see the point in having kids if its not fun.

LOL!!! Those are great! I totally agree! DD is only 2.5 so she kinda gets it, but DH and I are having a blast! It is our first year, so the extra ideas help! I saw one where the elf replaced everyone's stocking with their underwear, which I thought was pretty funny... One day ours baked cookies, but... then she ate them all, FAIL! Today ours was fishing for gold fish, and tonite she might toilet paper the tree, I'm debating it

Oh, I definitely need to replace our stocking with underwear! My kids would think it was hysterical.
