Well not always. See, elves are native to the North Pole and when Santa first got there with Ms. Claus, they were met with hostility as you might imagine. Santa set up a humble little gingerbread house with Ms Claus and for two winters they lived alone. The elves took offense to their encroaching and launched a full frontal assault on Santa's gingerbread house. Together with Ms. Claus, Santa defeated many of the elves. The elves having suffered such casualties, surrendered to Santa and Santa being as nice as he was offered the elves the opportunity to work for him making toys for all the good girls and boys of the world.
Santa's elves are nice to him because they always help him and that is why Santa is always nice to them.
Elves on Shelves are not real elves. They are elves that you place on a shelf to help kids get excited about Christmas.
It is The Elves and the Shoemaker. =)
no, there are no elves or other magical beings associated with the Christmas in Ethiopia.
Elves are small creatures who are associated with Christmas as Santa's helpers in the North Pole who make the toys - and they were not always so friendly. They originated in Scandinavia as house elves who could be helpful only if bribed but malicious if slighted, especially at Christmas. In Denmark, its customary to leave a bowl of milk out for them. Elves begin to take on a more positive and Christmas oriented in the 19th century as part of a drive to make the Christmas season more child-centered. Xox, Smartiiz.
The elves worked tirelessly to prepare toys for Christmas Eve.
Because elves make the best tuna sandwiches.
