Our elf Dodee (pronounced dough-dee) arrived in 2012 right before our youngest was born. While I was guaranteed to be up at least once a night with a newborn and an elf, I was often completely exhausted and out of the creativity needed to make Dodee's antics fun.
I still succeed which made our elf Huffpost famous. The next year, I planned the whole month in advance and wrote it all out on a calendar. I alternated easy and more involved elf adventures. It saved me so many evenings of dread and last minute panic from realizing I wasn't sure what the elf might be up to that night!
I've updated it every year and now have it available to you for only $2. What a great deal for the mental energy that will return to you this holiday season! I have also included tips, tricks, and alternate ideas for both tired and more energetic elves! You are getting MORE than a month's worth of ideas.
