About this idea

Your elf has set up an epic karaoke battle arena using a hairbrush microphone, smartphone/tablet displaying a fake 'Elf Idol' competition bracket, LED string lights as stage lighting, and stuffed animals as the judging panel holding up score cards (made from index cards). Bonus: Leave a note challenging your tween to a family karaoke night with song suggestions written in the elf's handwriting. The elf is mid-performance on a book stack stage.

What you'll need

  • Hairbrush (to serve as a microphone)
  • Smartphone or tablet (to display a fake 'Elf Idol' competition bracket)
  • LED string lights
  • Stuffed animals (to act as judges)
  • Index cards (for score cards)

How to set it up

  1. Arrange LED string lights around a small area to create a 'stage' atmosphere.
  2. Prop up your elf on a stack of books in the center of the stage and attach the hairbrush microphone to the elf's hand.
  3. Display a printed or drawn 'Elf Idol' competition bracket on the smartphone or tablet and place it where it can be easily seen.
  4. Position stuffed animals around the stage as judges and give each one an index card to hold as a score card.

Tips & variations

  • For added fun, write a note in the elf's handwriting challenging your family to a karaoke night and include a few song suggestions.
  • If you don't have a hairbrush microphone, you can use any small object like a pencil or a toy microphone.
  • Encourage your preschoolers to join in the fun by letting them hold score cards too and act as additional judges.
