Uh oh! Father Christmas’ elves are lost in Gravesend!
As part of Small Business Saturday THIS WEEKEND (1st - 3rd December) , we're taking part in the ellenor 'Santa's Elf Trail' in Gravesend. Its FREE , so why not get you and the kids involved.
Uh oh! Father Christmas’ elves are lost in Gravesend! Can you find them?!
The Elves have been spotted around Gravesend and it’s up to the children to help Ellie find them... Could there be one in the M&M Office!?!
Luckily, ellenor have got a handy map to show where the Elves were last spotted. Your children and their accompanying adults could dress up as elves too so that everyone can see you’re part of Ellie’s Christmas team.
Suitable for: Believers of Father Christmas and ages 3+
Cost: FREE! But if you can make a donation, it will help us care for patients and their families this Christmas
Location: St Georges Centre, DA11 0TA
Times: Book Online and then start your search any time between 10am and 4pm, grab your map and search for the Elves
How does it work: You meet Ellie’s helpers by the playground in the St Georges Centre. You will be given a map with locations where elves have been spotted. Visit those locations, find the elf, make a note of the letter on your map. Collect all the letters to reveal the secret festive message. Return to Ellie's helpers at the St Georges Centre with your secret message and collect your special certificate.
Can anyone take part? Yes! This event is recommended for children between 3 and 12. But if you have older or younger children that you think would enjoy taking part, you may book places for them.
How long will it take? It takes around 1.5 hours to complete, but you may want to shop or eat as you go which may make it longer.
Do we have to find every single elf to get our certificate? Ellie knows how busy you all are. It’s okay if you can’t get round to all of the locations. Ellie's helpers will help children to fill in the gaps. When you’re ready to finish, please come back to the St Georges Centre and collect your certificates.
Do I have to start at 10am? No, you can start anytime after 10am, but we recommend starting no later than 2.30pm to give you enough time to find all the letters.
What time do we have to be finished by? The event finishes at 4pm because Ellie needs to gather the elves up and get them back to the North Pole.
Do we need to bring anything? It's December, so please be prepared for wet, cold weather. It will also be dark around 3.45pm.
There's also a FREE PRIZE DRAW 🎅 When signing up to participate in ellenor's Elf trail you will automatically be entered in to a prize draw to win family tickets to ellenors special Santa's Tea Party (17 December/18 December)!🎄
