See you next year, dear elf: 5 ideas for a magical farewell

Now it's time to say goodbye. The elf that you hopefully held close to your hearts during Advent is returning to the world of the elf. This moment is not easy for many children, as the time together passes far too quickly. But the anticipation for next year is also palpable. With a few lovely ideas, you can make saying goodbye a little easier and spread the anticipation for next year.

1. The elf packs his bags

One day before his departure, elf packs up his things. He tidies up, packs small suitcases and moving boxes. The Minis can also help him tidy up and clean. Packing up his things is a wonderful way to look back on past pranks and activities.

2. A little surprise from the elf

Sometimes the elf leaves a little something behind for the kids when he leaves. For example, a letter thanking them for the time they've had and telling them he'll be back next year. Or he might even leave a small Christmas gift such as a stamp or a biscuit cutter - after all, it is Christmas Eve. Perhaps the little ones would also like to thank him and send a letter back?

4. On the trail of the little elf

On the last day, the elf may leave behind a series of tiny footprints - this time away from the small door, as a sign of its departure. The footprints may lead to a window or a front door - a final puzzle: where did the elf go?
