This product is only a vessel for your own creativity and ambitions as a parent. It is a cute story in a nicely made book with a $2 elf doll. I would have hoped that the elf would have been a higher quality, but as it is, it does hold up and looks pretty good. It can be a chore coming up with new places to put him night after night, but the kids are excited every morning to find him and have enjoyed the experience all around. It was a good buy.
