About this idea
The elf has gone full ancient Egypt on the Christmas tree — wrapping it top to bottom in toilet paper like a Christmas mummy! Prop the elf nearby holding a tiny handwritten sign that reads 'I mummified it for protection 🧻👑'. Use 2-3 toilet paper rolls for dramatic effect, let some hang loose, and scatter a few ornaments on the floor as 'evidence'. Bonus: leave a sticky note 'crime scene' label taped to the couch.
What you'll need
- 2-3 empty toilet paper rolls
- 1 small handwritten sign (with 'I mummified it for protection 🧻👑')
- A few small ornaments
- Sticky note and tape
- Elf doll
How to set it up
- Unroll 2-3 toilet paper rolls and wrap them loosely around the Christmas tree from top to bottom, leaving some paper hanging loosely for effect.
- Place the elf doll nearby the tree, holding the small handwritten sign that reads 'I mummified it for protection 🧻👑'.
- Scatter a few small ornaments on the floor around the tree as 'evidence' of the 'heist.'
Tips & variations
- Use different colored toilet paper for a more playful, vibrant look.
- For added fun, tape a sticky note that reads 'Crime Scene — Do Not Touch!' to a nearby piece of furniture like the couch.
- Let your preschoolers help wrap the paper and write the sign to make it a fun family activity!
