Disney-loving parents! Parents of tiny Disney lovers! You are going to love this fresh take on Elf on the Shelf [1]. Meet: Stitch [2] on the Shelf!
Holiday Mischief With Stitch [3] ($30) is a book and plush set that gives a little Ohana-feel to the viral holiday game for parents [4] (and magical tradition for kids [5]). We spied this little guy at the (newly renovated!) World of Disney's holiday shop — on the shelf, of course — so naturally we had to take a closer look.
True to character in the beloved Disney film Lilo & Stitch [6], Stitch is bound to get into some mischief – just like his predecessor, the classic Elf on the Shelf. But he's ready to learn some good behaviour, too! The choice is yours, parents [7] — the marker on his hat determines whether Stitch has been naughty or nice.
The storybook that accompanies the poseable plush doll [8] (aptly titled Holiday Mischief With Stitch) teaches a story about a "blue" Christmas, and the meaning of ohana. We think this just might be be a treasured tradition [9] in your own ohana, too.
Find your own little blue elf (shelf not included [10]) at the World of Disney, Disneyland resort, or shopdisney.com [11].
