We were surprised when we woke up to find the arrival of Anders the Elf! We cannot wait to see all the mischief he gets himself into.

Greetings from the North Pole!

Christmas time is here again! 

That means it's time for me to move in! 

SANTA has sent me to watch & listen.

So I can report back what he is missing. 

My elf magic happens when you are GOOD,

So listen to your parents just like you should! 

To keep the magic alive and your elf safe, 

Keep your hands to yourself for goodness sake! 

If you do as you're asked you'll find me each day, 

In a new hiding place, having fun and waiting to play. 

Watch for my notes, and as Christmas nears, 

Watch for the sky, you might see the reindeer! 

Love,

Anders the Elf
