Dob in your elf and gift yourself toys

WHAT on earth are elves allocated to Rosewood and Walloon children up to?

We are seeing all the naughty but nice stunts some of your elves did while the household was fast asleep.

From pranks to ending up stuck to a mirror by tape, last year’s elf cohort had a very jolly December.

This year we have a smorgasbord of toys to hand out thanks to toy company Spin Master.

Spin Master gives kids exceptional play experiences through its three creative centres, toys, entertainment and digital games.

There’s the Monster Jam Speedway that’s a replica of the World Finals track.

It has a booster that launches trucks through tracks and onto a podium.

Or what about the interactive Ms. Rachel Speak and Sing Doll?

This toy plays words, phrases and music to help little learners develop skills.

There are Hatchimals and Unicorn Academy Baby Unicorns too.

The Kinetic Sand Dino Sandwhirlz Case contains 680g of mouldable sand in beach, black and red colours.

Kids can dig through layers to uncover dinosaur bones and build three complete dinosaurs.

The Elf on the Shelf is one of the most photographed and shared images through social media during the festive season.

What we need are photos of something your elf got up to that made you laugh.

This is last year’s elf, this year’s cohort are still in the North Pole but we know you’ve saved photos (Santa told us).

First place is a $150 bundle, second is $75 and third $40.

There are heaps more to reveal as the competition unfolds over the next three weeks.

For your chance to win, send us a photograph of your elf doing something awesome.

Don’t forget to include your name, your elf’s name, suburb and best contact number (in case you win a prize).

Send your entry to events@boonahnewspapers.com.au

Entries close December 1 and winners will be notified December 2.
