Scene Set up Ideas...
We had great fun writing “The Bossy Elf’s Terrible Tasks” for you. We’ve tried them all out at home and we think the tasks will bring fun and laughter to make your run-up to Christmas a fun and memorable one!
This arrival scene simply explains to the children why The Bossy Elf is so bossy! It is also a fun introduction to the tasks The Bossy Elf has schemed up this year!
If you don’t have a fireplace to set your scene at each night, don’t worry, choose somewhere else like a comfy chair or the windowsill (or mix it up a little – keeping the children guessing where The Bossy Elf will be each morning).
We also use the timer on our mobile phones for all of our timed challenges and tasks.
Our treat of choice was making a smore (we do this a lot at home using two plain biscuits, to sandwich a large marshmallow and a small piece of chocolate, melting it in the microwave for a few seconds)!
If this arrival option isn’t for you, take a look at Option 1, which is more of a hands-on timed task.
Optional Extra Certificates – We have made a certificate (links below), which you could use as an award in some of the tasks, should you wish.
We hope you have fun!
