We move our Elf on the Shelf when the kids are asleep, making sure he’s in a fun Pinterest- worthy scenario: “Oh look, Mr. Snowflake baked us cookies last night,” or “uh-oh, Mr. Jingles got stuck in the tree. Whoopsies!”

Moving that elf every night for nearly a month is enough to drive every parent insane, which is why we’re taking a quick break from your normal elf shenanigans to bring you the naughty things Santa’s little helper gets himself into. Here are 20 late night Elf on the Shelf ideas (for adults only).
