My babies need their sleep, so staying up until midnight was not an option. I read a few different suggestions on how to celebrate the New Year with younger children, but decided to go simple and classic.
A giant box of party poppers from Sam's Club and family!
I set an alarm on my phone to go off at noon and we celebrated inside with noisemakers and horns. Then we all went outside to use the messy party poppers!
The kids had a great time celebrating, and I am very glad that we chose to do it this way. No missed sleep. :)
On New Year's Day, we took a drive to visit amazing friends. We tromped through the forest together for a while, making our own paths. Then, back at their house, we played in the hot tub! It was a cold day, but the we were very warm. A little later, we all had dinner together. It was wonderful starting the New Year with such dear friends.
