Creative elf ideas: crafting, modeling and drawing
Creative elf ideas give kids something to do. The elf's artwork or craft mission is waiting in the morning, and the kids carry on. Flour footprints and a powdered sugar angel need only pantry items.
The clay figure family brings toys to life, and paper snowflakes decorate the window. In the coloring book elf, the elf sits in the middle of a coloring book and waits for color. All of these suit rainy December days.
Flour and powdered sugar wipe up with a damp cloth. Put a mat underneath and it stays tidy. You can also color in the picture that goes with the prank.
