Questions about the Elf goodbye letter
Is the Elf goodbye letter free?

What paper should I use for the Elf goodbye letter?
Print the Elf goodbye letter on US Letter paper. On A4, choose Fit to page so nothing important falls off the edge. Color looks best. Black and white is fine if the printer is already out of color.
Can I add our elf's name?
Yes. The blank line is for the elf name you already use at home. Write it before you set the page out, or leave it for a kid to fill in the morning. The page does not assume a brand or a costume.
When do I use the goodbye letter?
Use the goodbye letter on Christmas Eve, with the elf in the last spot. It is one short page, so you do not need a speech. Print it the night before if Christmas Eve morning is already full.
