    We've been keeping on with this tradition for the past few years... It only works for the young ones but my wife and I have a great time with it...:D

    We do for our kids, 3 and 5, but we don't do the overly priced commercialized one :p We just buy a 8-12" stuffed elf and let the kids name him. We move him around the house every night, because at night he goes and talks to Santa, unless they weren't behaving then he doesn't move because he's giving them a second chance before he reports to Santa.
