Elf O'Clock Elf ideas

Elf idea: Welcome breakfast

The elf has laid the breakfast table with a treat for each child and a welcome note. It takes about 10 minutes and a little effort; you need mugs, cups, bowls, a baking tray, wooden spoon and straws, biscuits, crisps or snacks, paper, card and envelopes, felt tips, crayons and a marker pen, bananas, satsumas or apples.

A morning line from your elf

Morning. I've done breakfast. Don't ask about the cereal on the floor, that was already there.
