Create Fun Ears for Elves, Leprechauns and Attentive Readers!  If you're looking for a quick, easy and really fun project, you can print and assemble this project in no time at all! Originally designed as a classroom storytelling prop for my Elf books reading sessions, this project can easily be used to create Leprechaun Ears for St. Patrick's Day or used as a Halloween costume accessory. Here's how to make Leprechaun Ears like the ones Little Emma is modelling for us in the sample photo... 1.  Right click the project page below and save it to your computer. 2.  Print the page.  Apply double sided adhesive to the back of the      page before cutting them out. 3.  To insure the printer ink won't bleed if the ears happened to get wet,      lightly mist with clear sealer or cover them with laminate or clear      Contact (R)  paper. 4.  Apply double sided adhesive to the back of the page before cutting. 5.  Assemble and finish the headband as instructed Ho

There nothing more fun than introducing my Elf Characters to a happy group of children with their "listening ears" on!   One of the best things about being a new author, avid storyteller and book enthusiast is watching the many smiles as the story unfolds in front of a captive audience.  Whether it be an entire classroom of students or just one little child sitting on your lap, sharing a book is truly memorable holiday treasure.   If you're planning a Christmas party or holiday festivity, why not set aside a bit of time to gather the kids together and read them one of your favorite Holiday stories to make it extra special this year?  After all...it's children that make this season such a magical one for young and old alike! If you haven't yet ordered a copy of " A Little Elf Upon a Shelf " , there's still time! They make great stocking stuffers and Countdown Calendar surprises.  I have a few copies left here in the studio that I can autograph and
