Kids New Year Traditions
Confetti Tubes
If your kids are too young to stay up late don't let that stop you from celebrating. Make confetti tubes by placing confetti, either store bought or make your own with a hole puncher and paper, inside a toilet paper tube and wrap it up with decorative paper. Tie the ends with ribbon and place these on your holiday table. Before going to bed go outside and yell Happy New Year. Tear the ribbon of the confetti favors and let your kids have a ball throwing the confetti. (even if it isn't midnight kids will love this activity.)
Kids New Year's Goals
List one thing you’d like to do this year or a habit you'd like to overcome. Even young kids can think of at least one idea. Place everyone's goals in your Christmas boxes when you are packing up that way you will find it next year and see how you did.
A Start to the New Year Give your kids a little more bonding time with you this year. Start the new year off by setting a time each week to have a
kids cooking lesson
or a cooking project with your kids.
