Elf on the Shelf Alternative

Elf on the Shelf is a holiday tradition many parents partake in, but some experts say although it has good intentions, it could also be harmful to kids.
This site advocates for an alternative to Elf on the Shelf called the Kindness Elves which 
encourages some character development, thoughtfulness and kindness at the same time.
All it will really take for a great holiday and beyond with your kids is just a little positive parenting magic. ​
