Thank you!  I was trying to remember her name the other night.  I believe she wrote a book for her niece and then the "storm" began @Desertdi .

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

It's bad enough if you listen to the words of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" to hear he know when you are sleeping, he know when you're awake, he knows, etc. Santa has always been snooping on you if you hear the words, now he has his elves prying into your child's behavior as well. It just makes Christmas creepy. 

I behaved because I was told to, not because someone was watching my every more. It's even worse today because of real cameras everywhere. But, these elves moving around the house just isn't fun to me.

i think it is a cute idea......have enjoyed helping other moms figure out what to do with the elf each night. did not do it with my kids because it was not around then. if i have grandchildren would definitely find this a fun thing to do.

 

santa claus is coming to town is a "bad" or "creepy" song? LOL, grew up with this song, sung it often in elementary school, played it often in orchestra at christmas programs, and it has been around since 1934! its a wonderful classic that has been sung by many greats.

 

there is also a "mensch on the bench" for hanukkah.
