“We’ve seen a wonderful surge in families wanting content created for our youngest fans—some as young as 2—whose parents are eager to share the Scout Elf they grew up with as part of their own holiday traditions,” Chanda A. Bell, The Lumistella Company’s co-founder and co-CEO (and Santa’s Chief Storyteller) tells Billboard Family of the pivot to music. “As we celebrate our 20th anniversary, we’re delighted to introduce 10 new songs and a new pilot season of The Elf on the Shelf Scout Elf Squad on YouTube for fans of all ages to enjoy.”

Bell co-wrote the 2005 children’s book The Elf on the Shelf with her mother, Carol Aebersold, and helped bring their family’s annual Christmas tradition to a worldwide audience. Now, to celebrate two decades of the holiday staple, The Elf on the Shelf “Santaverse” is expanding to include the YouTube series and new music. According to a description of Scout Elf Squad, which arrives Nov. 24 on YouTube, “Four Scout Elves – Frostina, Shiver, Snowdrop and Blizzard – join forces for play and adventure after Scout Elf School each day! When they share the power of teamwork, imagination and their magical skills, they create a North Pole Power-up, enabling the squad to fix, help and save the day as they play along with other North Pole characters.”

As for the new music, Bell tells Billboard Family: “Christmas and music go hand-in-hand, and we’re excited for our merry band of The Elf on the Shelf Scout Elf Squad members, featured heroically in our new preschool show, to make the season a little brighter with these 10 delightful new songs. We hope they will inspire families and bring joy during this most wonderful time of the year.”
