  • Easy
  • All ages

What you need

  • a toy tea set or bottle caps

How to set it up

  1. Lay a napkin as a tablecloth and set out a toy teacup or bottle cap for each elf and each child.

  3. Seat the two elves facing each other, a cup resting in each lap.

Safety check

Bottle caps are a choking risk for little ones. Use a toy tea set around toddlers. How we check

Two elf dolls facing each other at a napkin tablecloth with toy teacups in their laps, and extra cups set by tiny place cards with children's names.

Note from your elf: More tea? We saved you a seat at the table.
