Got little ones in the house?  Countdown to New Year’s Eve with 10 fun play & learn activities.  Plus, you can do a countdown to noon or nine or whatever time works best with the littles.  It’s a great way to keep them involved in the countdown to the new year and everyone can still get their sleep.  And just because it’s a holiday, doesn’t mean they can’t do a little learning fun in the count down too.
