Christopher Pop-In-Kins





My high school friend brought me the neatest book for my grandchildren. It is about an elf who wanted to see real boys and girls. Santa allows him to "pop" in and out of houses beginning the last part of the month of November, and most of December each year to see real children. He has to be back at the North Pole before Christmas Eve. This way he can help Santa know what to bring all the kids on his sleigh ride! (He couldn't ride with Santa on Christmas Eve, because all the children would be sleeping.) Anyway, each time the grandkids come to my house they have to find Christopher Pop-In-Kins, who will be hiding out of reach. If the kids touch him, he has to go back to the North Pole to see Santa. So far Magnus has really enjoyed this cute little game. The book tells all about how this came to be. FUN! Here are some of the pictures of him hiding in the first few days.

I have since heard of several people who have a "shelf elf" that they hide during the Christmas season! How fun - and how did I miss this with my own children?
