    Christmas Elf Coloring Sheets

    These Christmas Elf Coloring Sheets are fun for kids and adults. Download the free printable and let your kids color their Elf on the Shelf and draw in a fun face. They can also cut them out and create a fun puppet show or give them as a gift to their Elf on the Shelf. The ideas are endless.

    During our recent Christmas Elf Brunch, one of the kids' favorite activities was coloring an Elf. They each got to color a girl Elf and a boy Elf and draw in their faces.

    My son even took it a step further and cut them out, taped them onto drinking straws, and created Elf puppets.

    He then put on a little Elf puppet show. It was super cute.
