Ordered this for a baby shower gift I'll be attending the first of January.  That way baby Cameron will have his elf with him from day one.  We of course have our own, Zippy, and this little guy is the BEST tool for keeping kids on their best behavior during December and they are just so much fun!  I hate that some adults have turned something so wholesome and sweet into something dirty at times, but hey, Santa watches them too.  So when they get coal in their stockings, they shouldn't be surprised.
