There don’t appear to be many accounts of people having ever spotted a real Christmas Elf or helper, though we know they must exist otherwise how else would everything get done at Christmas time? Well, here are just a few tips on how to organise yourself this Christmas, with or without the help of these present pixies.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas
Though December the 25th might be the official Christmas day, we all know that lots of preparation must be put in beforehand. Spread the season of goodwill around early this year with some Handmade Christmas Cards. They could be given as early Christmas presents for the little ones or just special Christmas Presents for those on your Christmas Card list; either way, they are sure to add a bit of festive cheer to anyone who gets one. Before you start shopping for the other Christmas presents, why not really sprinkle a bit of Santa’s magic around the home with an official ‘Christmas Letter to Santa Kit’? These Christmas presents are surely the best way of passing on that all important information to those hardworking Christmas Elves.

Deck the Halls
Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without a little bit of tinsel or that all important tree. Unfortunately the Christmas Elves are likely to be a bit busy arranging the Christmas presents so you’ll have to enlist the help of your own little helpers on this one. You could add a few special tokens to the tree this year with the ’12 Days of Christmas Decoration’ or a ‘Snowlace Christmas Glass Decoration’ for that really Christmassy feel. They can make lovely Christmas presents for someone else or even just a little treat for your own family this year.

Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree
If you’re going to be hosting the festivities this year then why not push the sleigh out and make it a really magical experience for the whole family. They should be able to amuse themselves once all the Christmas presents have been opened, and if a vat of mulled wine or a festive ‘Snowball’ doesn’t keep them entertained, then you may need a backup plan. ‘The Christmas Game’ can make wonderful Christmas presents or stocking filers for the whole family – these little tins have a host of jokes and games that will keep the troops entertained whilst you peel the potatoes and season the sprouts. After dinner, why not play something that the whole family can get involved with such as a game of charades, or ‘Who’s in the Bag Game’? These Christmas presents offer hours of fun and are guaranteed to give the family a very merry Christmas.

Let Them Know It’s Christmas Time…
“Feed The World…” so said the members of band Aid, but surely feeding a family at Christmas is hard enough! If it’s your turn to make the Christmas dinner this year then fear not, help is hand with a number of Christmas presents. Get the kids involved by treating them to a ‘Kid’s Recipe File’. With a little luck, these Christmas presents might even relieve you of all cooking duties next year and let Santa’s little helpers do most of the hard work! If you’re after something a bit more traditional this year then how about some tradition recipes from ‘Mrs Manley’s Christmas Treats’, or some tips from the famous ‘Mrs Beeton’s Everyday Cooking’? These ladies are surely the real Santa’s helpers and make for some truly welcome Christmas presents. If you’re going to someone else’s house this Christmas then why not treat them to some special Christmas presents that might even help them out. There are a selection of personalised champagnes, wine and spirits to choose from which can be shared by everyone or make wonderful keepsake Christmas presents. Luxury Christmas hampers can do a lot of the work for you, and make lovely Christmas presents either for your own family or someone else.

Merry Christmas Everybody
When all of the festivities are drawing to a close and you finally have a few moments to yourself, why not enlist Santa’s little helpers to do the washing up whilst you kick off the new slippers and enjoy your own Christmas presents. Treat yourself this year with some Christmas presents that you can really enjoy such a ‘Pamper Me Bathroom Bundle’ or ‘The Ultimate Chocoholics Indulgence’ – a great way to start the countdown for next year’s big day.
