This idea uses a reusable bag and pantry items to make the elf look like they went shopping. It is quick, colorful, and easy to move. If you already have a posable holiday elf, skip to the recipe. If you don't,start with the setup kit.
You Will Need:
- Your holiday elf
- Optional: a mini shopping cart if you want a tiny grocery run already parked by the bag.
- Reusable grocery bag
- Sealed snacks or fruit
- Small receipt note
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Fill the bag lightly
Place a few sealed snacks, fruit, or paper props in the grocery bag.
Step 2: Hide the elf
Let the elf peek out from the top so the face is easy to see.
Step 3: Add the receipt
Write a pretend receipt with items like "cheer," "cookies," or "holiday snacks."
Safety & Pro Tips:
- Do not make the bag too heavy.
- Use sealed items only.
- This works well after grocery day.
