2020 has been a year to remember! Usher in 2021 with fun and games to bring the new year in with a bang.
Countdown Clock Decoration
Blow up balloons and using black stickers or markers, write the numbers from 1 to 12. Stick them to your wall with tape in a circle to form a clock. Add ribbon to the bottoms of the balloons for more fun. Make a minute and hour hand for the middle of the balloon. A great addition to your NYE decorations.
What you need:Â 12 balloons, 12 ribbons, black marker or sticker numbers, minute and hour hands cut out, black paper, scissors, tape
Mocktails for Kids
Create fancy drinks for the youngest members of your house! Using plastic champagne flutes, using a light-coloured fruit juice such as apple juice, grape juice or sparkling apple juice. To make the colour change, add hard rock candy to the juice. Also try Sour Patch Kids, gummy bears, pop rocks or anything else fun. You can also try to add sprinkles to a glass of milk to make it fancy and fun.
What you need (mocktails) – Plastic champagne glasses, light fruit juice (apple, grape or sparkling apple), candy of your choice
Milk glasses – Glass, colourful sprinkles, something to make the sprinkles stick to the rim (honey, corn syrup)
Glow In The Dark Ring Toss
Make an easy ring toss for family fun using glass bottles, glow in the dark tape and glow sticks. Decorate the glass bottles in the tape and make rings with the glow sticks. Set up the bottles, turn out the lights and toss the rings!
What you need – Glass bottles, glow in the dark tape, glow sticks
Shaving Cream Fireworks
What is NYE without fireworks? Have some messy fun with your kids using shaving cream, paint, toothpicks and a cookie sheet. Fill the cookie sheet with shaving cream. Using a piece of cardboard, flatten it out evenly in the pan. Drop colours of paint onto the shaving cream. Using a toothpick, start on the middle of the dot and pull the colour out like a firework burst. Add in a second colour if you wish. Do this for all of the drops of paint on the cookie sheet. Take a blank piece of paper and press down gently onto the shaving cream. Pull gently away from the pan. If there is any excess shaving cream, use the cardboard to remove. Let it dry and you have an amazing firework print!
What you need – Cookie sheet, shaving cream, paint, cardboard, white paper, toothpicks
