You Will Need This:
- • Your holiday elf
- • Gingerbread cookies (store-bought or homemade)

- • Sprinkles, candy decorations, or mini M&Ms
- • A kitchen counter or table
- • Optional: Mini rolling pin, cookie cutters, or apron
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Set Up the Cookie Station
Arrange gingerbread cookies on a plate or baking sheet on your kitchen counter. You can use plain cookies or already-decorated ones - both work great!
Step 2: Add Decorating Supplies
Place small bowls or tubes of icing near the cookies. Scatter sprinkles, candy decorations, or mini M&Ms around the area to make it look like your elf is in the middle of decorating.
Step 3: Position Your Elf
Place your elf near the cookies, making it look like they're decorating, tasting, or organizing the cookie production. You could have them holding a tiny icing tube or sitting next to a half-decorated cookie.
Step 4: Add Baking Details
Create a "cookie factory" vibe! Add a small sign that says "Elf's Cookie Factory" or "Fresh Baked!" You could also include mini cookie cutters, a tiny rolling pin, or even a small apron for your elf.
Step 5: Morning Cookie Magic
When kids discover their elf running a cookie factory, they'll be thrilled! This scene is perfect for inspiring a family baking session or just enjoying the sweet surprise.
