It’s almost New Year’s Eve! What traditions does your family have for celebrating the big night? Plans here change as kids grow older, but most often we end up all together having a family movie night while snacking on take-out, leftover Christmas sweets, and sometimes even a homemade chocolate fondue! Just because you may be ringing in the new year at home, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t decorate! We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite crafts, activities, and decor perfect for kids and families.

Nothing says New Year’s Eve like confetti! This handmade garland showcases your favorite confetti mix, all thanks to clear contact paper. Just sprinkle the confetti onto the sticky side, sandwich it with another piece of contact paper, and cut into whatever shapes you like. Hang on a string and voila – confetti everywhere and no mess!
