10 Christian Elf on the Shelf Ideas (Jesus Style)

The magic of Christmas time is in full swing at my house. My family and I have put up our Christmas tree with the twinkling garland, lights, and ornaments.

This can be a fun experience every morning during the holiday season when the kids wake up and have to find where the elf is now sitting.

10 Easy Elf on the Shelf Ideas (Jesus Style)

Reading the bible

1

One morning it would be great to place your elf in front of the Bible open to a verse that speaks about the birth of Jesus. This verse can then be read by your children which can elicit some discussion around it’s meaning.

Praying

2

It is a great idea to place your elf in a kneeling position to depict it praying. If you have a special place where your family prays it is the perfect place to place your elf. Other places are at the end of a bed or at the dinner table.

Sharing bible verse

3

Your elf can be a great example of spreading God’s word by writing a daily bible verse as a part of your family Bible study.

Worshiping baby Jesus at the nativity scene

If you don’t already own a nativity set, buy one of these Nativity Sets For Kids and wrap it as an early gift from Santa.

A cute (and silly) elf idea that incorporates both Christ and Christmas is to have your elf make a snow angel. Powdered sugar can be messy, but salt and sugar work just as well.
