Elf on the Shelf Doctor’s Note

Parents, get your official Elf on the Shelf doctor’s note today and get 3 days off from all elf duties!

Calling all Elf on The Shelf Parents! 

It’s that time of year again. Hanging lights, preparing a gift list for Santa, hot chocolate, and of course, your child’s favorite – Elf on the Shelf. Over the next month, you will see your everyday routine change as the Christmas season gets closer and closer. 

We understand parents’ struggle – balancing the busy holiday season and everyday life. 

Remember, even Santa’s greatest helpers need a break. 

We give you three days free of all Elf on the Shelf duties this holiday season. Our doctors have prepared a note that excuses your child’s elf from any movement or playtime due to a case of Reindeer Influenza. 

It’s simple! Inform your child of the influx of elves admitted to our emergency room last season. Then, encourage them to follow the doctor’s order for rest to recover to prevent their elf from spending Christmas in the ER. Also, we include some prevention tips for your child to follow to stop the spread of Reindeer Influenza or, as we call it in the “real world,” the flu.
