Ah, the famous elf pranks! That little rascal comes back every year to turn the house into a real playground. Between boots in the fridge and flour all over the counter, we\u2019re always wondering how to reinvent the elf\u2019s mischief each year. If your imagination is starting to run out, we\u2019ve put together 17 Elf on the Shelf prank ideas that are just as funny as they are quick to set up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The Cookie-Thief Elf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Seat your elf on the shelf next to a spilled pack of cookies, with crumbs all over its face and shirt. You can even place a tiny cookie in its hands and scatter a few crumbs around the \u201ccrime scene.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bonus idea:<\/strong> Leave a little note that says, \u201cOops\u2026 I was just testing to make sure the cookies were still good for Santa!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. The Bathroom Elf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The toilet paper\u2026 maybe you’ve already used it to build a giant Christmas tree by stacking the rolls and decorating them with bows and garlands\u2014or even to wrap it all around the real tree as a \u201cnew kind of garland.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this time, here\u2019s something a little more\u2026 mischievous: the elf pooped<\/em> and wiped himself with the toilet paper roll! A bit of melted chocolate (Nutella or leftover Halloween chocolate\u2014no judgment!) is all you need to create fake poop marks. You can even drop a few raisins in the toilet bowl to make tiny \u201cdroppings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it the height of maturity? Absolutely not.
Will the kids burst out laughing? Absolutely yes!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. The Elf Stuck in the Washing Machine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Use some tape to stick the elf to the inside of the washing machine door (ideally when it\u2019s off, of course!) and add a little note saying \u201cSOS!\u201d or \u201cHelp me!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like maybe he wanted to get clean after all his mischief\u2026 or maybe he just mistook the washing machine for a magical North Pole slide!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. The Fishing Elf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

\n

Place a few fish-shaped crackers at the bottom of the sink or in a large bowl. For the fishing rod, a piece of pipe cleaner (or a straw) with a small string works perfectly!

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. The Artistic Elf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of ways for the elf to get mischievous\u2026 with an artistic twist!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
