Ways to Use These Elf Printables

Print a selection of notes, coupons, jokes, and small props before December begins, then keep them ready for mornings when you need a quick elf idea. Add a note beside the elf, tuck a coupon into its hands, or pair it with a simple household item. ✉️

Use arrival letters and rules when the elf first appears, then choose games, puzzles, coloring pages, and scavenger hunts for special visits throughout the month. A goodbye letter can help bring the tradition to a warm and cheerful close.

Teachers can also use selected elf games, word searches, jokes, coloring pages, and writing activities during classroom celebrations, holiday centres, morning work, or the final days before winter break. 🎄
