New Year's Eve Countdown

This year for New Year's Eve, we had a kid's version of the big countdown.  We started with some New Year's crafts, then all gathered around and counted down to 12:00 noon, which was followed by a big balloon drop, lots of horn blowing, bubble wrap stomping, and all around celebrating.  Afterwards, we had a New Year's feast and toasted to the upcoming year with fun champagne (plastic) cups.  It was such a special and fun time that we plan to make this New Year's party a yearly tradition.
