What you need

  • a dry-erase marker

How to set it up

  1. Write GOOD MORNING on the mirror with a dry-erase marker.
  2. Sit your elf on the sink with the marker tucked under one arm, cap on.

Safety check

Use a dry-erase marker only. It wipes off glass. With a toddler, put the marker away after writing: marker caps are a choking risk under 4. How we check

An elf doll on a bathroom sink with a capped marker tucked under one arm, below a mirror that says GOOD MORNING in dry-erase marker.

Note from your elf: Couldn't find paper, so I used the mirror. It wipes off. Promise!
