Sticky Note Takeover
Your elf covered a door in sticky notes, with a message hidden in the middle.
A 10-minute idea for The Elf on the Shelf® or any elf doll.
What you need
- a pad of sticky notes
- a marker
How to set it up
- Cover a door the kids pass at breakfast, like the pantry or a closet, with sticky notes, about ten across and ten down.
- Write GOOD MORNING across the middle, one big letter on each note.
- Sit your elf on the floor beside the door, against the wall, with the last note in their lap.
Safety check
Pick a door nobody walks through or past at night, so nobody steps on your elf in the dark. Sticky notes peel off cleanly, but skip doors with fresh paint, and use a washable marker, since permanent ink can bleed through onto the door. How we check
Note from your elf: I had one pad of sticky notes and a big dream.
