Elf O'Clock Elf ideas

Elf idea: Pancake chef

The elf is wearing a paper chef's hat next to a bowl, a spoon and a note promising pancakes. It takes about 10 minutes and a little effort; you need mugs, cups, bowls, a baking tray, wooden spoon and straws, plain flour, icing sugar, oats or rice, eggs in their box, paper, card and envelopes, felt tips, crayons and a marker pen.
