Oh how very true. And I have been doing just that…..
Creating an experience, to share with somebody VERY special…
YOU!!!!
INTRODUCING
Late October “My Pigeon Pair” will be presenting……
“My Christmas Elf ~
A Series of Fun and Educational,
ideas and activities to enrich your Christmas Elf Tradition!”
“My Christmas Elf” will run over 20 days (Monday-Friday)
on the “My Pigeon Pair” blog.
Each day will feature;
- A new activity to enrich your Elf Tradition
- Printables to enhance each activity
- Positioning ideas for your Elf!
- Australian Curriculum Links for Teachers of children Foundation – Year 3
- Much, Much more!!!
This series is appropriate for children aged 2-8 and has been created for both Teachers and Parents!
Why Late October? Running the sereies a month before you really need it allows you time to organise and prepare for the busy Christmas season. You can print and prepare as you go and come the 1st of December you will be ready to welcome to your Elf! It also means school teachers with classes that finish at the end of November (like me!) will still be able to participate in this wonderful tradition!!!
What kind of activities? Think writing, reading, maths, creating, crafting, cooking and just spreading some Christmas cheer!
What does it cost? Printer Ink and paper!!! During the series all printables will be FREE. Just share the love! If you love it let your friends know! Oh and it will also help to have a few basic craft supplies on hand and a bit of imagination!
What if I don’t have time? This series just gives you some ideas! Each activity is completely separate to the one before it so you can do as many or as few as you like and at a time they suit you!

I love this idea. Rachel x
I can’t wait. My little Elf arrived yesterday
I cannot tell you how excited I am about this. i have been stressing myself silly about how I was going to come up with all these cool ideas for our elf. I have been trailing Pinterest and am now even more stressed when I saw the extent that some people go to. Talk about pressure! I am so following your lead on this one. xx
Aww thanks Sonia! No need to be stress about the little guy! It is meant to be a joyful tradition! Look forward to seeing what your elf gets up to! L
