2013 Elf Prank Day 9. The reward.

Our kids take care of the elves for Santa because they are too naughty to be playing pranks at the North Pole. No spying and reporting or other creepiness. The Elves always give them a present on the last night of their stay here.

The elves found brand new Mad Libs books for the kids to do when they got up. They also got a little crazy with doing some of their own, too.

Elf Prank- Day 15- Christmas Ornaments

Elf Prank- Day 15- Christmas Ornaments

While the kids were sleeping, the elves were again busy. They created hand made, original ornaments by sewing flat felt and needle felting roving felt. Note the Christmas tree ornament and the Santa one.

This led to days of needle felting and a continuation of the wet felting that had taken place to make the balls you see in the laps of the elves.

Elf Pranks- Day 14- Sliced Bananas

Elf Pranks- Day 14- Sliced Bananas.

As you can see, the elves wanted the kids to eat bananas. What you can't see is that the elves used some pretty cool magic to have the bananas be sliced inside the peel before they were even opened!

Here are the instructions from Instructables... http://www.instructables.com/id/Pre-sliced-Banana-Prank/

Intro

Pre-sliced Banana Prank!

Imagine how surprised you would be if you peeled a banana and it was already cut into regular chunks. Yup, that's what I thought.

This instructable is about a prank I like to do that never fails to surprise people, especially if you tell people it's a new type of genetically modified banana! It's low-cost and quick.

I am not responsible for any split sides, cracked ribs or any other injuries that may occur with this prank.

Elf Pranks- Day 13 Popcorn Garland

Elf Pranks- Day 13 Popcorn Garland

Well, the elves were busy making popcorn and stealing the cranberries to make garland for the Christmas tree. They even tried dying the popcorn green but it didn't work well for "them". The garland was a lot of fun and looked pretty on the tree.

Elf Pranks- Day 12 Popcorn and Movie Night

Elf Pranks- Day 12 Popcorn and Movie Night

Elf Pranks- Day 11 Painted Toenails

Elf Pranks- Day 11 Painted Toenails... Daddy's.

I didn't take any pictures of the Elves painting Daddy's toenails sloppily and secretly in the night and leaving the girls pretty new Christmas colored polish to do mani/pedi with.

Elf Pranks- Day 10 Dental Floss fun.

The elves got into the dental floss and got all tangled up! They had sword fights with the flossers.

Elf Pranks Day 9. The elves got into the cotton balls. They apparently had a snow ball fight with them. They made a cotton snowman.

Elf Pranks Day 8- Rice Krispies™!

Day 8- Rice Krispies Fun.

The elves were apparently elated that their foster family had purchased some Rice Krispies™. The guys on the front of the cereal box are elves just like them. So, they played and had a great time with the cereal. Note the Rice Krispies "Snow" Angels.

Elf Pranks Day 7- Trains

The elves got out the train set and built them all over the living room and dining room. The kids played with them too but also still had to pick them up.
