Elf Lost His Magic! How to Restore Elf on the Shelf Magic

With the Holidays coming up. Many of us are continuing the Elf on the Shelf tradition, some of us are starting the tradition. Either way, we are always looking for new ideas to keep things fun and interesting! Our family elf is called Mater. Yes, after the Cars Movie, Mater. This is his 7th year with us and he seems to have gotten into plenty of trouble since then! The kids have gotten in trouble too by touching him. Let me share How to Restore Elf on the Shelf Magic when the Elf Lost His Magic!

Elf Lost His Magic! How to Restore Elf on the Shelf Magic

Today I thought it would be important to talk about what to do if a child touches the Elf and causes it to lose his magic. This very situation happened just the other day in our house. I knew right away he would have to write a letter to Santa. So we set to work on having my son copy the letter I wrote for him.

Then I went on a hunt for a checklist and couldn't find one I liked. So I made this one and you can currently get it for free. I like that motivates my kids to clean their room because that is a daily struggle in our house!

You can convert your child's letter to an email and send it to send. There is also some fun games and activities on that site as well.

My plan is to have the Elf show up the next day all bandaged up and on ‘bed rest' with a note from Santa!

I'd love to hear some of the great ways your elf has visited you!!
