Elf O'Clock Elf ideas

Elf idea: Elf did a chore

The elf has 'done' a small chore: laid the table or paired the socks, and asks the kids to do one too. It takes about 5 minutes and hardly any effort; you need socks, pants and tea towels, paper, card and envelopes, felt tips, crayons and a marker pen.
