The Magic Elf

What is The Magic Elf?
A "magic" Santa doll with 25 messages about the meaning of Christmas.


How does The Magic Elf work?
Each night from December 1st to December 25th, after the children
fall asleep (and with the help of parents), The Magic Elf “wakes up
to stretch his wings” and “hides” in a different spot around the house,
holding a Christmas message in his hands.  Each morning
(with the excitement of an Easter egg hunt,) the children search
the house for the Magic Elf and his message.  


What are The Magic Elf's messages?
The Magic Elf’s twenty-five daily messages are intended to teach
children about the Christmas celebration. They include an explanation
of why the holiday is called Christmas, why gifts are exchanged, the
story of the Nativity, and suggestions for teaching children about
the spirit of Christmas (being kind, giving, neighborly, patient, thankful etc.)  


Why has The Magic Elf become a
cherished tradition for so many families?
“The Magic Elf offers children an opportunity to enjoy the excitement
of Christmas while helping parents reinforce the more meaningful aspects
of the holiday” says Nancy Vaughan of Rise and Shine Designs, Inc.,
creator of The Magic Elf.  She adds, “The daily adventure of finding
the Elf provides good old fashioned fun for the family and the chance
to carve out a small window of time to be together in the busy days
leading up to Christmas.”

The Legend of The Magic Elf


One Christmas, long ago, Santa Claus was reading his
mail.  He loved getting letters from boys and girls
around the world telling him all the wonderful things
they had done during the year.  But that year, he
noticed that the letters had changed.  The kids were
demanding extravagant gifts with few manners and
little mention of goodness.  Santa was concerned.  
As much as Santa loved giving gifts...he didn't want
Christmas to lose its real meaning.  So Santa created
a host of Magic Elves...all with snow white beards,
stocking caps and twinkling eyes. He gave the Magic
Elves wings, sprinkled them with magic dust and
sent them on their way to help children learn the
meaning of Christmas.
