The Welcome Letter, Elf 6-7

Our Elf on the Shelf welcome letter starts with excitement straight from the North Pole. The elf explains what they’ve been up to (toy testing, cookie sampling—serious business) and lets the kids know they’ll be popping up in different spots each morning.
But here’s where it gets fun.

The elf introduces the question of the season:
“Are you more of a 6 or a 7 today?”
The answer?
Both.
A little silly.
A little sparkly.
A whole lot excited to spend the holidays together.

It’s playful and lighthearted, and it feels very now—without being confusing or overexplained.

Kids don’t need the backstory; they know it means fun, surprises, and good energy.

The welcome letter also includes reminders that matter:

Be kind
Try your best
Believe in the magic around you.

Simple. Sweet. No lectures.

The Elf on the Shelf Goodbye Letter, 6-7 version

This letter explains that it’s time for the elf to head back to the North Pole.

Santa needs all hands on deck. But before leaving, the elf reflects on what they’ve seen: kindness, creativity, teamwork, and giggles.
Then the 6–7 trend comes back full circle. The season is described as “the perfect mix of 6 and 7″—a little silly, a little fantastic, and full of surprises.

It’s a clever way to wrap up the chaos of December in a way that feels intentional and affirming.

The letter reassures kids that:

The elf will tell Santa all the amazing things they saw
The magic doesn’t disappear when the elf leaves
Christmas kindness doesn’t expire on December 25

And just like that, the season gets a bow on it.

Why the 6–7 Trend Works So Well With Elf on the Shelf

The beauty of the 6–7 trend is its flexibility. It doesn’t need a deep explanation. It’s a vibe.

Using it in Elf letters:

Keeps things current without being cringey
Adds humor that parents actually enjoy
Gives kids language for moods and feelings
Makes the letters feel personal instead of generic

It’s playful, not distracting. And that’s the sweet spot.

What Is 67?

Let’s address the holiday elephant in the room: What is 67?

“The Song Lyric: The phrase “6-7” comes directly from Skrilla’s song, where the lyrics go: “The way that switch, I know he dyin’. 6-7″.

The rapper has stated the number has a fluid meaning, possibly referring to a specific street (67th Street) in Philadelphia or Chicago, or simply just a spontaneous thought he had while making the song.” [source]
