Try This!
Have your child write their own New Year’s Resolutions. Record them to listen to at the end of the year. Start a tradition of celebrating New Year’s at noon so that your children can join in on the fun of counting down! Have a ball drop (use a piñata or make your own ball by wrapping a beach ball in foil) and “toast” with sparkling apple cider! Make a list with your child of all their favorite memories of last year. Have them draw some of the memories to share with friends and family.
