It’s been a month of chaos in homes across Ireland as elves caused mayhem once again.

The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show has been receiving daily updates from children all over the country describing the antics of their Elf on the Shelf and they seem to have been extra mischievous this year!

They’ve been vandalizing sinks, breaking eggs, shaving heads and everything in between!

Before they head back to the North Pole, here are some of our favourite Elf on the Shelf updates, sent in by listeners of The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show!

Elftigen testing in progress...

"Your time starts... now"

Don't trust the free lemonade!

Not sure we'd chance whatever these guys are cooking up either...

This little guy has his house snookered...

This image will haunt our dreams forever...

These guys are definitely on Mammy's side.

Someone tell this elf that you don't use metal on a non-stick pan!

Ethan and Emilia are lucky to have this friendly elf.

Elves for the win!!
