You may have been seeing lots of images circulating on the internet of a certain elf posing in all sorts of fun positions around people's homes throughout December. Why?

The story behind it is that Santa's 'Scout Elves' fly to the North Pole every night in December to report back to Santa whether your children have been naughty or nice.

The elves then fly back to your house and hide in a new spot for the children to find them the next morning.

Parents across Northamptonshire have been getting very creative with their elves and we have selected just a few of our favourite ideas:
