when do you bring out the elf on a shelf

As you know, Elf on the Shelf is a popular tradition during the holiday season. The Elf on the Shelf is a mischievous elf who observes the behavior of children and reports back to Santa Claus every night. The Elf is placed in a different spot in the house each day to surprise children and encourage good behavior. The Elf on the Shelf is typically brought out on the day after Thanksgiving, also known as "Black Friday," and remains until Christmas Eve when Santa arrives.
