Elf on the Shelf has become a popular tradition in the homes of many families with children big and small over the holiday season, and some of our favourite celebrities have been sharing their own creative elf adventures this month.

Stars including David and Victoria Beckham - who have been hiding their elf for six-year-old daughter Harper, and Ayda Field and Robbie Williams - who have a female elf called Dotty for five-year-old Teddy and two-year-old Charleton - have been having fun in the countdown to the big day.

From hiding on the shelf to making a mess in the kitchen, take a look through our gallery to see which stars have been getting involved this December…

No doubt Emma's two sons, Beau, nine, and six-year-old Tate, are having a great time discovering what the elf has been up to this festive season!
