5 NEW WALMART ELF ON THE SHELF IDEAS
Check out the fun ideas I came up with while wandering the aisles of my local Walmart!

1. KEEP IT POPPING
My little boys love anything to make bath time extra fun. These were very inexpensive to buy, and will make the evening routine a little more exciting.
Supplies:
- Mr. Bubble Magic Bath Crackle packets.
2. SWEET CEREAL
We don’t buy a lot of sugary cereal at our house, but the boys have come to expect a box from the elves each year!
Supplies:
- Elf on the Shelf Cereal
- This year we’re trying the hot cocoa with marshmallows variety.
- We’ve done the Sugar Cookie Cereal in the past.
- The Elf cereal would also be a fun option if you can’t find the others.
3. MERRY SQUISH-MAS
My little boys LOVE soft, cuddly plush toys. These adorable generic Squishmallow-type dolls were very reasonably priced.
Supplies:
- Squishmallow-type stuffed animals.
- I’ve tried over and over to find these EXACT plush toys on the Walmart website to link for you, with no luck. You might be lucky to find them in store- honestly, you can’t beat that price! Fingers crossed you get your hands on some!
4. STORY TIME
Dress up is a major thing around our house, so I knew these novelty glasses would be a big hit!
Supplies:
- Holiday novelty glasses from Packed Party, or similar.
- Some holiday themed books for bed time reading! I used some we already owned, but it’s also a fun excuse to buy some new titles!
- Pipe cleaners + scissors to make your elf it’s own glasses.
- Glue dots will help the glasses stay on.
5. PIECE OF CAKE!
A tasty treat I can easily tuck into a lunch box? Sign me up!
Supplies:
- Elf on the Shelf Cakebites.
- I decided to try the Christmas Cakebites, but I bet the Hot Cocoa ones are great too!
