About this deal
My granddaughter will be three in a couple of months and she received her elf this holiday season. Naming our Elf was an adventure. Every name we suggested she said “No” to so we asked if she wanted to name is “No” and she said YES!! So our Elf’s name is Knowie. He travels home every night and finds a new place to perch the next morning. Each morning it’s a game to find out where he is sitting and she loves it. We have to tell him goodnight every night and make sure that she knows he’s watching and will report to Santa so she’d better be good.
