Elves

Elves are the traditional helpers of Santa Claus in Christmas stories.
==The Great Santa Claus Switch==
The 1970 special The Great Santa Claus Switch featured a group of elves working in Santa's Workshop. They introduced themselves in the song "Happy Little Christmas Elves" as "Zippity, Skippity, Hoppity, Bing, Bong... and Fred."
Fred, performed by Jim Henson, was the only elf to realize that Santa had been replaced by an evil twin, Cosmo Scam, who was bent on filling the workshop with monstrous Frackles and ruining Christmas.
The other elves were performed by Jerry Nelson (Zippity), Daniel Seagren (Skippity), Frank Oz (Hoppity), Richard Hunt (Bing) and John Lovelady (Bong).
==More Elves==
In the 1996 special Elmo Saves Christmas, a group of Anything Muppet elves become increasingly frustrated by the endless Christmas labor caused by Elmo's wish that he could have Christmas every day. Performers for the elves are Fran Brill, Martin P. Robinson, Kevin Clash, David Rudman, and Joey Mazzarino.
In the Elmo's World: Happy Holidays!, a trio of Anything Muppet elves were helping Santa out with the presents at the North Pole. The elves were performed by Joey Mazzarino, David Rudman and Stephanie D'Abruzzo.
Stiller the Elf met Elmo in the 2007 special Elmo's Christmas Countdown, and the Sesame Street friends helped Stiller track down the numbers for his Christmas counter-downer. Various computer-generated elves are seen during the opening credits.
Santa's chief elf (played by Paul Williams) appeared in the 2008 special A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa.
A Hot Pink Muppet elf, performed by Martin P. Robinson, appeared in the 2016 special Once Upon a Sesame Street Christmas.
