Enter "The Santa Smiles Mission.”
Here is how it works: On the morning that your Elf arrives at the house, he will bring along a note explaining that they have been given a mission this holiday season. Your child is now in charge of spreading "Santa Smiles." Each night when the Elf flies back to the North Pole, Santa will give your Elf a new mission for your child. When your child wakes up in the morning, he/she will find the Elf in a new spot (Yes, you still have to move it!) with a new mission (Act of Kindness) to complete that day.
We’ve made it easy for you to start this tradition in your home this season with printables that include 48 different “missions” for your Elf to deliver. We’ve also includes a blank page that you can customize.
