The Elf on the Shelf from Goodnite Rooms
Based on tradition, this cleverly rhymed hardbound children's book explains that Santa knows who is naughty or nice because he sends a scout elf to every home. The sneaky elf, included with the product, reports back to Santa each night. By morning the elf returns to its assigned home and hides in a different location, allowing the children to play a delightful hide-and-seek game. Purchasing The Elf on the Shelf allows you to give a gift that creates lasting memories ($29.99).

Goodnite Rooms offers the highest quality furniture and gifts for new moms and babies at a reasonable cost.
