My children love Elmer the Patchwork Elephant. He is a loveable character with an important message for children (and adults too!) – “Why fit in when you were born to stand out?”. We had so much fun painting our ceramic elephant to look like Elmer!
The first Elmer Day will be held on May 28th 2016. There are events all over the country to celebrate and I have brought together 12 of my favourite Elmer the Elephant crafts to help celebrate Elmer Day.
