The Christmas season is full of sparkle, surprises, and Scout Elf fun! But between wrapping gifts, baking cookies, and planning family moments, some nights it’s nice to make things a little easier—for both you and your elf.
There’s a simple way to do just that: gift your Scout Elf a few handy North Pole props they can use over and over. These clever sets help your elf pull off big fun with less effort and more imagination. Think of them as the elf-sized tools that make mischief happen—whether your Scout Elf is arriving, celebrating mid-season, or wrapping up the countdown to Christmas.
Here are five easy elf ideas that can bring giggles, magic, and creativity to your home all season long.
Is This How You Play Pickleball?
An elf idea with a sporty twist that’s dill-ightfully fun!
Your Scout Elf loves a little friendly competition, and the Pickleball Play Pack is ready for action. Your elf will set up a mini court on the counter or kitchen table with the net and paddles in place, then pose mid-serve, while holding the printable signs.
Other ways your elf might use it:
- Host a “North Pole Pickleball Tournament” between stuffed animals.
- Leave the net up for a “Team Humans” match. Can you use the mini paddles and volley the pickle back and forth?
- Pop it out later in the season to announce a family pickleball even at the park!
A single prop that gives your elf multiple days of ideas? That’s a win for everyone!
In My Elf Era
Your elf’s ready to take the stage!
When your Scout Elf wants to shine, the MagiFreez Pop Star outfit gives them the spotlight. Set up a simple stage with twinkle lights, tinsel and sparkly decorations.
“Live from the North Pole—one night only!”
Encore ideas your elf can use this set for later:
- Host a “Talent Show” with the elf as emcee.
- Bring the look back later for a “Farewell Tour” concert before the elf returns to Santa.
- They might “record a new single” with other plush toy backup singers.
One set, endless encore performances—this prop easily becomes part of your elf’s creative rotation for years to come.
Family Pizza Night
When your Scout Elf’s in the mood for a little take-out magic!
If your elf loves pizza (and who doesn’t?), the Polar Pizza Truck delivers big fun in small bites. They’ll park the truck on the counter and pose with the mini pizza box and pizza as a hint that tonight should be pizza night.
More fun deliveries from your elf:
- They’ll use it later to deliver supplies for a make-your-own-mini-pizza dinner.
- They’ll turn it into a “cookie delivery truck,” serving up mini cookie “pizzas.”
- They’ll show up with plate-sized gingerbread cookie “pizza” dough for a family cookie decorating party, for a fresh take on the gingerbread house tradition.
Because the truck can be repurposed in so many ways, it’s one of those props that earns its place in your elf’s rotation year after year.
Soccer Game Day
A sporty setup that scores every time!
This North Pole Pitch Kit lets your elf kick off the fun. Literally! Your Scout Elf will pose mid-game on a grassy pitch while his friends cheer him on!
Switch up the play:
- Your elf might return later as a coach, encouraging kids to practice “kindness drills.”
- They might show up with the trophy for the family to celebrate each other by giving out awards, like “Best Helper” or “Best Bedmaker”.
- Or they’ll combine with other sports props to suggest a “North Pole Winter Games.”
A little imagination goes a long way, especially with props that can easily transform from one scene to the next.
Spa Day
Even elves need a little time to recharge!
After nights of flying and reporting to Santa, your Scout Elf might need to unwind. That’s where the S’elf Care Set comes in!
Or take the hint! Perhaps they’re suggesting your family should take some down time! They’ll fill the tiny tub with pom-pom “bubbles,” put in their ear buds and set out the towel to let you know it’s time for some s’elf care.
Re-use it in new ways:
- They might add cocoa mix and a book for a cozy “Relax and Read” night scene.
- They might put on a playlist like The Elf on the Shelf LoFi Holiday Collection.
- They could even bring in some playful Frost Pips elf babies for bath time!
This set gives your elf a fun excuse to slow down—perfect for quiet moments in the middle of all the merry chaos.
Why Reusable Props Make the Season Easier
Every parent knows the joy of seeing their kids’ faces light up each morning—but also the wonder of the late-night question: “What do you think the elf do tomorrow?”
When your Scout Elf has a few props from Santa’s Store, that question answers itself.
- Easy setups: Most scenes take just a minute or two for your elf to stage.
- Fresh ideas: Each piece can be used in multiple ways throughout the season.
- Long-lasting magic: They’re sturdy enough for your elf to bring back year after year.
Think of it as helping your elf pack smart. A few thoughtful tools mean less stress, more fun, and plenty of time left for the things that matter most, like cuddles, cocoa, and Christmas stories. And that’s what makes the season shine: a little help for your elf, a lot of magic for your family.
