We are SO excited to partner with Tarte to bring you this Crisp Cringle Tarte 12 day elf kit!
We hope this takes all the stress out of this tradition and makes your crew smile!
If you have ANY questions, please feel free to dm me @crispcollectiveig or email info@crispcollective.org.
You can find all of our elf kit options HERE.
Your elf will be ready for Christmas in style with their purple and green sneakers! Loosen the laces and place your elf’s foot inside!
You will also find TWO blank cards to use as you please should you want to add a personal note to any of the days!
Supplies: Reindeer body, reindeer legs (2), straw
Instructions: Find the valve on each of your reindeer balloon parts. Insert the paper straw into the valve and blow up your three balloon parts. The valve will seal when you pull the straw out. Insert the legs into the slits on the reindeer body. Place your elf on top. Place the card on the easel. Let’s get this party started!
Supplies: Ornament, Ornament card
Instructions: Place the card, your elf and ornament on your Christmas tree or place the card on the wooden easel as shown above. There is a switch on the back of the ornament to turn it on!
You can also write a note from your elf on the back of the ornament if you’d like!
Shine Bright is the theme of this year’s kit, and I hope this ornament will remind your family of this year’s elf adventures each year you place it on your tree!
Supplies: Turning these upside down card, mini clothespin
Instructions: Find a place in your home to hang your elf upside down and clip the sign to his hand, hat or collar. In the pic above I also flipped our family photos upside down.
I hung the elf from the light and flipped the chairs and photos upside down.
Another idea: I hung the elf from a book and flipped the books and toys upside down. You could also hang him from a kitchen or bathroom cabinet and turn items in those rooms upside down! Whatever is easiest for you and get a giggle!
Supplies: Movie night card, popcorn costume, wooden easel
Instructions: Use the velcro to attach the popcorn costume to your elf. Place the card on the wooden easel.
Try to use this day when you have time to watch a Christmas movie together!
Supplies: mini cocoa cup, cocoa crazy card
Instructions: Lay your elf, card and cup on the counter or floor.
Supplies: Prancer’s poker night card, deck of cards, pick a card, any card card- all in bag labeled, “days 8-16”, “friends” to play poker and mini clothespins from bag 1 to hold card together.
Instructions: Use clothespins to create a hand of cards for each friend playing poker. Place the remaining cards next to the pick a card card.
Have your child draw a card and follow the directions.
Supplies: Old McSanta card, wooden easel, farm animal capsules-loose in your box
Instructions: Place card on the easel, set our magic pills. Follow the instructions on the package, dropping the pills into water to see them become McSanta’s farm friends!
Supplies: Eye stickers, eyes to the skies card
Instructions: Write the number of days left until Christmas on your card. Place your eyeball stickers on items in your fridge and place the card by your elf.
You could also place these eyeball stickers on family photos, toys in your child’s room…whatever will get a smile!
Supplies: Rudolph’s riddles card, wooden easel, wrapping paper (optional)
Instructions: Have your elf get into a little wrapping mischief…roll him up in wrapping paper or have him sticking out the end of a wrapping paper roll. If you don’t want to use wrapping paper, you could also wrap him in toilet paper instead!
Supplies: Flamingo, mermaid tail, jingle bells, Jingle and Flamingle card, wooden easel
Instructions: Slide on the mermaid tail and place your elf in the flamingo float. Place the card on the easel! BYOB…bring your own bells!
Supplies: Squish card
Instructions: “Squish” your elf between two things. I did a stack of plates here, but your could do books, sticking out of a chair cushion, under a furniture leg, etc.
Supplies: Farewell card, Santa sprinkles card, sprinkles, scissors, wooden easel
Instructions: Sign your farewell card from your elf and set it on the easel. Set out the sprinkles and card.
On Christmas Eve help your child cut the sprinkles in half and spread on the yard to guide Santa’s sleigh.
Day 13 (Bonus):
This one is optional, but for our family, while we LOVE all the fun and festivities, JESUS is the the reason for the season. Place this card open to the story of Jesus’s birth in the Bible or near a nativity scene.
I cannot thank you enough for “elfing” with us this year! My hope is that this kit helped bring JOY to your family and took some stress off of you in an already stressful season! Thank you for letting us play a small part in your family’s Christmas magic!
