I recently heard about a fun way to celebrate New Year’s with the kids without going past their bedtime…. It’s called Noon Year’s Eve. Basically you have fun and party during the day rather than late at night. It keeps them from feeling left out and keeps you from losing your sanity with wound up kids getting little sleep.
Local Radio Disney stations are hosting Noon Year’s Eve activities in 20 locations across the US on December 31st so you don’t even have to use your house for it!
What can you expect at Radio Disney’s Noon Year’s Eve Party?
Hosted by Radio Disney’s local stations, the “Noon Year’s Eve” events feature the best songs of the year from Radio Disney’s “Top 50 of 2012,” interactive entertainment and prizes. Many of the events will also feature resolution writing, balloon drops, juice toasts and a special countdown.
