The Kelce Family's Low-Key Elf on the Shelf Tradition
2024-12-19
In a world where holiday traditions often come with a lot of fanfare, the Kelce family stands out with their extremely low-key approach to Elf on the Shelf. Kylie Kelce and her husband Jason Kelce have chosen a path that is far from the norm, and it's a decision that has sparked both curiosity and amusement.

Dec. 1 and the Changing Locations
The Kelce family Elf, Eminemi, makes its grand entrance on December 1st. This little elf then embarks on a journey of changing locations on "most nights," adding an element of surprise to the holiday season. It's not a constant presence but a delightful occurrence that keeps the family on their toes. For example, one night Eminemi might be found perched on a bookshelf, and the next it could be hiding in a drawer. This unpredictability brings a sense of charm to their Elf on the Shelf experience.Things Eminemi Is Not Doing
Eminemi is a very laid-back elf. She doesn't leave notes like some other Elves might. There are no gifts being brought by this elf. And she certainly isn't causing any mischief. Kelce explained, "Power to you if you really go all out with your Elf in a Shelf situation. That's not our reality, and we are perfectly fine with it." This simplicity allows the family to focus on the true meaning of the holiday rather than getting caught up in elaborate Elf traditions. It shows that a low-maintenance Elf can still bring joy and warmth to the home.The Potential Issue with Other Families
While the Kelce family's Elf approach is working well for them, there is one tiny potential issue that they are aware of. As Kelce said, "The one problem that I have not yet run into, I am nervous for the time where my girls compare notes at school. Because I'm nervous about the families whose Elves bring gifts and fun things, and then they come home and ask me why Eminemi is such a deadbeat elf." This highlights the fact that every family's Elf on the Shelf experience is unique, and it can be a bit challenging when comparing with others. But the Kelces are content with their own way of doing things.Since starting her Wave Sports + Entertainment Original podcast during the holiday season, Kelce has been open about various aspects of her life. She has discussed her dislike of pregnancy, how she schedules childcare, and her list of toys that she really, really hopes people will not give her children for Christmas. It's clear that she is not afraid to be honest and share her thoughts with her listeners. And we can't wait to see what she'll get real about next.
