Elf Pickleball Match
Your elf turned the kitchen table into a pickleball court and is ready to referee your first match.
A 5-minute idea for The Elf on the Shelf® or any elf doll.
What you need
- two spoons
- a cotton ball
- a few books
How to set it up
- Lay a row of books across the middle of the table as the net.
- Set a spoon on each side as a paddle, and a cotton ball by one spoon, ready to serve.
- Sit your elf on the table edge at one end of the net, legs dangling, as the referee.
Safety check
Spoons only, nothing sharp. With a toddler at the table, serve a rolled-up sock instead: a cotton ball can end up in a little mouth. How we check
Note from your elf: Court's open, and I'm the referee! Find a friend and serve it up. It's a big dill!
