When 2020 ends and 2021 begins, I plan to celebrate! My New Year’s Eve celebrations are always designed around the family. That’s why I’ve always liked to find some fun things for the children to do before it got too late. They will enjoy ringing in the new year, even if they don’t stay awake that late.
Here are a few fun ideas that you can use with your children to let them be a part of a New Year’s celebration! There are so many fun and frugal ways to have fun with your family. Board games, charades, Pictionary, fun movies, or anything that your family enjoys are great ideas. Remembering the good times of the past year and praying for God to bless the new one are all wonderful things to do as a family.
