About The Elf On The Shelf Virtual Escape Room
A friend suggested my daughter make an Elf On The Shelf virtual escape room this year, and my daughter liked the idea so much within minutes she was at the computer working on new puzzles to challenge players in an all-new virtual escape room for kids.
My daughter discovered the world of virtual escape rooms in spring 2020 during the lockdown and has had a lot of fun making escape rooms for others to enjoy. It all started as a fun activity she created for her sister’s Girl Scout Troop to do, and it has become something she loves to create.
The Christmas escape room is geared toward elementary-aged children to complete but is fun for kids of all ages. It can be completed individually or as a team. It is also a great activity for students to do either via distance learning or in the classroom. Or fun for a family to do while home on break.
My daughter hopes you enjoy her Elf On The Shelf Virtual Escape Room. She is already thinking about creating a New Year’s Eve Virtual Escape room if people are interested. (Be sure to leave her a comment on her escape room if you are interested in a New Year’s Eve escape room.)
Please take a moment to respond to the questions on the last page and be sure to hit submit. One unfortunate feature of Google Form is that it only captures responses if you click submit on the last page, and my daughter loves watching the counter go up on the number of people who have completed her challenge.
Note, to date more than 100,000 people have completed her Virtual Escape Rooms, but we think the number is higher responses are not counted unless the last page is submitted.
Thanks for playing!
