When I was a kid, I can honestly say that I was just as excited for New Year’s Eve as I was for Christmas.

We would blow up some balloons, have a delicious seafood dinner, and play board games all night long as we counted down to midnight.

Now as an adult I want my kids to have those same fun memories and it’s nice to finally get to sit home and enjoy each other after what always turns out to be a crazy busy holiday season.  It’s our one last chance to relax before heading back to the grind.

Other fun ideas for New Year’s Eve at home…

  • Play board games – I’ll never forget how much fun we would have as kids sitting around with all the adults playing Clue, Monopoly, and Hotels.  With such busy schedules, everyone sitting down to play a board game together is sure to be remembered by your kiddos!
  •  Bang pots & pans outside at midnight – No need to make noisemakers when you have a handy stash of them right in your cabinets!
  • Snack the night away – I’m sure with all the excitement your kids won’t want to sit down and have a meal.  They’ll be sure to know it’s a special night if they can just snack the night away and pick at some yummies as they please.
  • Don’t forget the confetti – Create some by tearing all that leftover colored tissue paper from Christmas into little pieces.
