To help kids get in on the New Year’s festivities, here are some of our favorite New Year’s crafts for kids:

1. New Year’s Countdown Clock – Create a New Year’s countdown clock with cardboard and markers. Have your kids draw their own design or find an online template to use as inspiration. Cut out the circles and stick them onto a piece of cardboard and then add numbers to each circle for counting down until midnight!
2. New Year Noisemakers – Let your kids create their own New Years noisemakers using recycled materials like paper plates and yarn. Just cut shapes in the paper plates, thread them and then add some bells or other things that make noise. Then tie a handle on each end, and your kids are ready to ring in the New Year!
