Nice family fun 😊
Everyone knows about this by now but this one is the one to go for. Lovely book comes with it. Just a nice Xmas tradition with my two kids 5 and 3 which as they get older has the potential to get a bit cheekier and funnier. My kids named ours Lucky after we read the book and were obsessed with him. Superb build quality. Nice materials. Just buy it you'll be so glad you did. I'm actually looking forward to seeing Lucky again next year, he's part of Xmas now and who can put a price on those memories?

Fabulous quality
Bought for my son who is sooooo in love with idea of magical elves. This product did not disappoint. Its really good quality, the story book is a fabulous addition and helps shape the rules (without it being a parent restriction, such as the 'no touching or it'll lose its powers' rule. I honestly think he's more excited about this elf than the 'big fella in red' 😁 Absolute value for your money. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

A great tradition to start and to enjoy.
This is a lovely item. We got it so as to have a bit of fun on the lead up to Christmas and, to "motivate" the kids to be on best behavior all the time. Well, what can I say. The kids just love it - first thing every morning they run downstairs to see what mischief he has gotten up to. If they are misbehaving, we just remind them that the elf is here and they (generally) revert back to their well-behaved selves. The story that comes with it is a nice read. The hardest thing is thinking what to do each evening with the elf - but, as the kids are small, pretty much anything entertains them.

Is he going to be a good elf or a bad elf?
We won a competition to win a elf on the shelf but it didn’t come until the second week of December so was a little late to use over Christmas which my little girl was a bit upset over. To cheer her up it was her birthday in January so the elf made a birthday appearance with a special gift of slime bears - it cheered her up so much. This is the prefect set it comes in a well presented gift box with a birthday book (great read) and a really cute birthday outfit for the elf (cupcake outfit with a hat) it’s made really well and at a bargain price. My other children have said they would like the elf to come out on everyone’s birthday but the question is - is he going to be a good elf or a naughty elf?

not wired which would have made it perfect.
Authentic and the original... unlike the cheaper ones on the market. my only issue is with the fact I assumed the elf would have been wired so as to bend and position him with more ease. its great but I feel overpriced for what you get. that said the box book and elf are indeed excellent quality so its a classic case of you get what you pay for so I suppose the overpriced comment is redundant really so ignore that. . as my daughter isn't allowed to touch it..(due to it losing its magic). It will be safe to put in my own wires and attach velcro for when he comes out of his box next year. this enabling me to position him better.

OK product.
I purchased this last year for my daughter and her partner. I usually get them a joint pressie to open on Christmas decoration day and thought this might be a bit of a different pressie for them. I also bought some bits and pieces to get them started. I had to return the original elf as I'd ordered a boy but a girl was delivered however, the process was really quick and easy. Thank you Amazon. To be honest, I do think the product itself is overpriced, but have given 4 stars for the fun element.

Worth the price!! Don't hesitate like I did!
We love our elf!!! We've looked at this item numerous times before but have previously been put off by the price. This year we decided to take a chance and we are delighted with it! The box it comes in is ideal as a keepsake. It's very high quality, as is the hardback book that comes with it. We decided to read our son (aged 3) the story now so that he really becomes familiar with the concept. It's now become his favourite story which he chooses for bedtime every night! On 1st December our elf will make his first appearance, bringing my son's advent calendar with him. We can already tell that this is going to become a well loved tradition and it was worth every penny!!!

Great concept - a lot of fun!
The book is a little unusual in that it really is just to explain the concept of the Elf visiting and reporting to Santa etc. There isn't really a story to be told as such in the book but it is nicely written with rhyming sentences and pictures to keep it entertaining. Our daughter requested the book for several bedtime reads in the run up to Christmas which makes it a hit (considering all of the other choices in the bookcase). The Elf toy is a little disappointing as it feels a little cheap and I was hoping it might have posable limbs that would make it easier to locate in fun and unusual places. Overall a recommended buy, you could of course just buy a toy Elf and explain the concept but I think the book makes this easier (especially if the concept is somewhat new to you).

Ogni bimbo dovrebbe averlo
Meraviglioso. Ogni bimbo dovrebbe averne uno. Lo stupore alla mattina negli occhi dei bimbi quando lo trovano in un posto diverso è impagabile. Divertente la sera per i genitori spostarlo nei posti più strani. L’elfo rende il Natale ancora più magico. Di anno in anno i bimbi aspettano il giorno in cui gli elfi torneranno. Stupendi i racconti che continuano per tutto il giorno sul ritrovamento dopo la notte.

After losing our original elf in a house fire, this was the best and easiest way to get our elf back in time for Christmas. Made the spirit of Christmas truly come true for the kids... as they knew nothing had happened to our elf! He was safe with santa

Worth the price but no elf included!
I kept seeing reviews that when bought used, it was severely damaged but came so quick, not damaged at all maybe like one page a bit torn but nothing was like reviews I’ve seen my daughter loved it and for the price!!!

Honestly this little guy gets our family in the Christmas Spirit and my husband is so creative! *Pros: well made, timeless holiday tradition, encourages creativity and imagination. *Cons: The hat keeps falling off so I got some glue and its all good now 💡 Tip: Plan a few easy elf ideas ahead of time to keep the tradition fun and stress-free. I highly recommend this item & I hope this review is helpful 👍🏻

Il libro è piaciuto moltissimo a mio figlio, che adora gli elfi. È la versione da ‘buon compleanno’ dell’elfo rosso di Natale, e all’interno c’è anche un vestitino da festa per l’elfo mensolino! Consigliato!
