AN “ADJUSTED” MIDNIGHT

nye-countdown-clock-1

It’s midnight somewhere 🙂 If you have little ones that can’t make it to midnight, you can always adjust your celebrations to noon or any other chosen hour that works for your family! Once all the confetti has been tossed and noisemakers have quieted down, you can tuck them in at night and continue on the celebration to midnight 🙂

DIY UPCYCLED CONFETTI

While you can always go out an buy tons of confetti to toss in the air, you might have some supplies already in the house. Don’t toss your Christmas or Holiday wrapping paper – put them through your shredder or get your little ones to help with their kid scissors. You’ll have tons of confetti from colorful paper you were going to toss out!

DIY CONFETTI BOX

What to do with all that confetti? Well, you could go all out and create poppers or fill a balloons, but the easiest thing might just be to decorate a box with New Years wishes and have everyone grab confetti at midnight! This works really well for little ones who might not be able to work a confetti popper but still want to get into the confetti fun! Click here to check out the details!

CONFETTI BALLOONS

Pick up a few New Years balloons (or let your kiddos draw and write New Years messages on them). Then fill them with some confetti, candy, and/or trinkets. At midnight, give them all a pop!

A SIMPLE NEW YEARS TABLE
