Parents rave about ‘elf surveillance’ cameras claiming it’s stopped their kids being naughty ahead of Christmas – The Sun

ONE of the handiest things about being a parent around the Christmas period is how you can always rely on Santa to discipline your kids when they're being naughty.

Well if your little ones are beginning to wise up to the fact that Father Christmas may not always be watching them, then allow us to introduce you to the "Elf Surveillance" camera- a handy mock CCTV which promises to report any bad behaviour directly to Santa themselves.

Raving about the £2.99 dummy camera on the Facebook page I Bought It At, one parent joked: "Well that's one way to keep them off the naughty list!!"

As a technological alternative to a classic Elf on a Shelf, this battery-powered toy features a red flashing light to give the impression it's recording any misbehaviour.

However, the genius dummy camera doesn't actually spy on your kids – but as long as they're behaving themselves in the run-up to Christmas, they don't need to know that. Right?

Proving that this toy is something worth picking up before December hits, one mum claimed it was "good for older kids" in an Amazon review.

She wrote: "My older son doesn't believe in elf on a shelf… this he believes!"

Another added: "This is the funniest thing, my kids find it 'creepy' that Santa is watching them all the time but I find it hilarious."

Better still, this £2.99 device is ideal for frazzled parents who have run out of imaginative Elf on a Shelf ideas in the run up to the big day – trust us, we've been THERE.

Plus this pregnant mum has been left fuming after her husband said he doesn't want another baby because he doesn't want to "cut gym time".
