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.

5 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.

4

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.
