The Elf on the Shelf® is Santa's official scout elf, tasked with reporting back to the North Pole on the behaviour of children all over the world. They help Santa manage his naughty and nice lists, finding new spots to perch each morning, waiting for someone to spot them. Adopt a Girl Elf on the Shelf® or Boy Elf on the Shelf® and make them part of your family's Christmas traditions today.
