No, we have Christopher Popinkins and his sister Christina Popinkins (I have a son and a daughter). They just hide every night.0

Elf on a shelf is creepy....He's always watching. Like a stalker.0
-
I tried, but it's far too much work.
He has to be in a different spot each day and you can't touch him...boo.0 -
yep, kids love it, excited everyday to see where he is.....0
-
I do... Elfie watches a whole lot of tv though.0

it's creepy0

Agreed.
True. The whole thing is probably an NSA conspiracy to prepare the next generation for the surveillance state.0 -

Once I found out what it was, I decided to stop being so snobbish about it and learn more. And I cannot WAIT for us to get an Elf this year - it sounds like such a good idea!
My only wish is that I could keep her up year round!0 -
No.
And anyone who subjects their children to this horrible thing should have the authorities called on them.0 -

Or god.0 -
Honestly I really don't like lying to me kids even about things like Santa, the tooth fairy, etc. I do it because yeah, joy of being a kid and all that, but I don't like it. So I don't need to add another physical element to the lie. (And really I'm not judging people that use it, this is my own issue, no one elses', probably stems from the fact that my mother made stuff up ALL the time).0

never heard of it until now0

Many teachers I work with use one at school lol, the kids absolutely love it, and they behave better when the darn creepy thing is sitting there, so I'm in favor of the elf regime lol0

I'm with the folks who find it creepy.
I also find it unsettling that the whole idea of the thing is essentially blackmailing kids into behaving. The elf is watching you. He/She reports to Santa Every. Single. Night.
Also ain't nobody got time for that.0 -

Sounds like sex with my wife.0 -
I do! He usually comes around Thanksgiving!

Yeah I don't know anyone who does this in the UK, but I'm sure someone might prove me wrong. Umm, creepy, weird, odd, & you have to move the damn thing about?! :noway:
I never really had dolls as a kid though. They freaked me out then too.0 -
I managed to survive my childhood without a lot of the latest fads. So I'm sure my kids will be ok. And they listen because I'm the Mama, not because of the Santa threat.0
-
I can't stand that creepy elf's face. Makes me want to punch it right in it's shiny little smug grin.0

We prefer to scare our children with the peanut butter bears.
"You'd better be good. You know the peanut butter bears are always watching you..."

We had these as kids but haven't done this in our house with our boys. Loved having those elves around at Christmas growing up.0

The kids love it, well worth the effort........ours is Bruce.0

What does this said elf look like? I think it's kinda cute but also creepy!0

They creep me out.0

We don't do this, but I do have a count down for the kids. It's something my mom made (not a new concept, she just made the part that hangs on the wall) and started for my sisters and I. I tie little gifts on to it for the kids starting at the 1st of December. It's just little gifts, like stuff under a dollar. Hair ties for my daughter, little cars for my son. Sometimes it's just a note saying the get a free date night with mom or that they get to stay up 30 minutes later. They get to open them after school and they love it!0
