These Elf On A Shelf Tragedies May Or May Not Have Been An Accident (17 Pics)

Elf on a Shelf is a Christmas tradition where parents hide an elf doll every night for their children to find in the morning. The elf must not be touched for the entire day which has led to some great elf on the shelf fails. Many parents have confessed they get tired of hiding the elf after about a week and I don’t blame them. My life advice here is to tell your children that your elf had to go to a farm upstate and will not be returning next year.
