So.. I had the pleasure of reviewing an awesome package from
www.ElfingAround.com.
Lisa from ElfingAround.com was an absolute pleasure to work with and I just love that I was offered the opportunity to review such an awesome website that offers such an traditional yet creative Gift for our kids for the Holidays.
When I heard about Elfing Around, I thought the name was cute and catchy! I looked over the product and thought, hmm Christmas Elfs for my girls - would be quite interesting!
The website is actually very easy to navigate, the theme is of course Christmas/Elfs and easy on the eyes. I loved the fact that the website explained what you and your child will experience. Very detailed and just reading the experience portion of the website got me all giddy!
So Basically, what they sell are Elf Dolls that work in Santa's workshop, that come to the home to visit your child. 12 days before Christmas, the parent will leave the little clues and notes that comes in the package for the child to find/discover. It's a very interactive gift that both parent and child will enjoy! (My daughter and I surely did!)
You can select a Boy or Girl Elf to visit your home - it's rather easy as pie to order from the website! Once you select if you'd like a boy or girl elf, you fill out a small questionaire - which includes:
Elf's name (Choose from a list), Profession of elf (Choose from a list), You child's name (optional), Child's Birthday (Optional - for birthday card if applicable).
The package itself includes:
- Your selected plush elf
- Parent adventure guide book
- "Letter from Herbie Elf, Jr." With Envelope
- 2 Elf Tattoos
- Wish List
- "I'm Here" Letter
- "See You Next Year" Letter
When I received the package, my daughter was real curious as to what it was, but it was rather discreet and neatly packaged so she wasn't sure what was in there. She had NO idea there was an amazing holiday elf that was going to visit/vacation with her! I did have it personalized with her name so that it would be a bit more special for her.
The Parent guide was extremely easy to use and follow as the directions are written every step of the way - there is no way to goof this experience up! The Parent guide contains 12 activities parents can set up in five minutes or less after the kids are asleep. During the day, Elf can be played with, but at night, the magic happens! the clues/coupons that will be used to either find something or reward the child. It made this experience so special because my daughter loved finding all the clues around the house and the time spent together is always precious! The cute letters from the Toy Workshop from the North Pole and all the neat and nifty extras it comes with are just so adorable!
Before you want to start the fun, the letter will let your child know to be expecting him or her! Once your Elf friend arrives, parents can use the guidebook to set up a “magical scene” for your children to find in the morning when they wake up!
I honestly think you and your child will absolutely love this product! You get the best bang for the buck with this traditional and heartfelt gift for your child! I think this would be a great christmas tradition to start. Surely will bring the Christmas spirit alive every year for the kids to get excited about. Although my youngest daughter was too young (21 months old) to understand - my 3 year old daughter loved the "treasure hunt" as she'd call it, and she absolutely loved her doll, whom we picked the name "Sparkle".
If your looking for something new, fun and exciting to do with your kids, you cannot go wrong with this awesome package from
