where to find elf on shelf

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas tradition where a special elf, known as an Elf on the Shelf, is placed in a child's home to watch over them. The elf is said to report back to Santa Claus about the child's behavior and report whether they have been good or bad during the year. Elf on the Shelf is usually placed on a high shelf or somewhere the child cannot reach, and is traditionally dressed in a red and white striped outfit with a hat. Elf on the Shelf is said to have the ability to move around the house and even play pranks on the children.
