The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition - Boy Scout Elf with Brown Eyes - Includes Artfully Illustrated Storybook, Keepsake Box and Official Adoption Certificate

It is a great gift for the children and for my blended family! We are pairing him with the blue eyed girl they have been using for years. He looks very true to the depiction on the site. He has a light skin tone similar somewhere between my son and myself. I would call it Tanned or Bronzed. I believe the children will love it, and we even have a storyline to bring him into the family thanks to the girl losing her hat last Christmas.

I have the Blue Eyed elf on the shelf but was needing one for my son from another Mother. (He's darker skin and has black hair). I am excited to hear what he's going to be named, he looks better than I expected! Just as anwesome and original as the one I bought in 2022. This is going to surprise him and bring so much necessary Joy for this holiday season. Jesus is the reason for the season, there's nothing more that he enjoys than to see shared Love and Happiness between his family and friends. If you are on the fence about getting an “Elf” for your shelf, take that leap. You won't regret and your kids obviously won't either. It's intentionally bonding, going out of your way to connect with your child or children in their world. Even if you are busy and don't feel like you have the time or energy to do much. Whatever your elf does your child /or children will love! From moving to different places each night or causing chaos. Get some ideas online if you need to but remember you aren't going to have the materials, places, the list could go on forever ect. as everyone else. So stayed inspired and take it slow when you need to. I can almost guarantee there will be a few nights you'll be stumped and he'll end up in a new spot on the tree or just waiting to be found sitting on a favorite book.but After you really get inspired watch out because you might actually find yoursELF having fun! Happy Holidays and may God continue to bless you and all of yours! P.S. don't forget to wish them there farewell and send them on their way to the closet to hide away in their neat little shelf homes they were packed in. It might be a bit pricey or so it feels but it's been three years since I purchased my first elf for my oldest and it's the best 35 tax investment I've ever made. It's been a gift that's done nothing but keep on giving.
