Keeping the magic and mystery of Christmas alive for little children is becoming a real challenge in our commercialised world. Along comes the award winning Elf for Christmas from the UK to help you do just that. What we love about this range of products is the super sense of humour that is built into all the different elements that are so very child-friendly. Stunning design and attention to detail. Your family will be left tingling with excitement and anticipation for the arrival of Christmas and Santa Claus this December.
Rewards for good behaviour
This outstanding Christmas range will delight your children as they learn to regulate their behaviour to get positive feedback from the Elf for Christmas who is acting as Santa’s Scout – his eyes and ears, so to speak. What a fun way to get your kids on board! To teach them that they have a choice in being ‘naughty’ or ‘nice’. Choice and consequences are powerful tools in parenting that can be used to great effect to empower children.
