Chippey and Santa!
During the Christmas season we get a little extra help from our Elf, Chippey, and a framed picture of Santa. These two make disciplining a little bit easier during the Christmas season! And tattles....well, instead of us hearing tattle after tattle, the kids talk to Chippey instead. :)
Chippey
Chippey is a great Elf that the kids adore! Each of the boys are beyond excited each and every morning to find Chippey and see where he landed from his visit to the North Pole the night before. Every morning they come into my room and then tell me that they have to go find Chippey. They run around the house until he is found and then they giggle, laugh, and scream with joy that Chippey is back and he is in a new spot in the house. This picture below is from a morning that Chippey had to take the airplane to the North Pole, in order to help out a friend Elf, Eddie. Our friends, and the boys' daycare, has an Elf named Eddie. One of the boys at the daycare doesn't have an Elf at home, so doesn't really know the "rules" of having an Elf on the Shelf. This little boy touched Eddie one day! Anyhow, the kids were terrified that Eddie lost his magic and wouldn't be able to get back to the North Pole. So, Chippey had to take one of our airplanes to pick up Eddie and took him to the North Pole to get better. :) He landed safe and sound the following morning and had a note that told us that "Eddie is okay." I absolutely love the excitement and magic that this little Elf, Chippey, brings to our house during the Christmas season!
Santa
A lady that used to work at my school is a great artist and drew this picture of Santa! I bought it from her, put it in a frame, and it is the perfect picture to have on a shelf at Christmastime. This picture shows Brady talking to Santa one day. Between Chippey and Santa, they heard just about everything from the boys.
