New Year’s Eve Kids’ Countdown Bags are a great way to keep kids busy while waiting for the new year. We used these with our Noon Year’s Eve Kids Party and they were a hit.
We threw our kids a Noon Year’s Eve Party. It was so much fun.
We wanted to keep them busy to lessen the mess and mischief, so we put together these fun New Year’s Eve Kids’ Countdown Bags.
For our Noon Year’s Eve Party, we started at 10:00am and let the kids do open a bag with an activity idea until Noon, which was the New Year’s Celebration time.
Here’s what you’ll need to make your own New Year’s Eve Kids’ Countdown Bags:

The New Year’s Eve Kids’ Countdown Bags are simple to put together.
First, cut and print out the Countdown clock printable.
Next you’ll staple or tape the clocks onto the Mini Silver Treat Bags.
Then, you just need to print and cut out the printable activity cards. There are 2 sheets to choose from. Or use all the activities to keep the kids busy.
You could also place some candies in the bags or anything else that might be fun for the kids.
We have posts on how to make a few of these fun ideas to make it easy for you to plan the party.
Make sure you check out the rest of our Noon Year’s Eve Kids’ Party. Here’s a sneak peek at the fun.

I try to never respond negatively, but please tell me you don’t use the term “mocktails”: with kids. I’m an old lady and do remember how we bought candy cigarettes and bubble gum cigars and imitated the adults around us. Seems very creepy now. The idea of offering a “mocktail” to a child elicits the same emotion. Why make a “drink” the star of the celebration?
Hope no one is offended. I think your site is wonderful and have enjoyed a number of your projects in the past.
Hi Vicki,
I agree with you and we honestly don’t use that term with our kids at all. It’s more of a soda bar and it really isn’t the star of the show. Hopefully once the full party is on the site it will all make more sense. The title is more of a way for people to search for drink ideas in knowing that their isn’t alcohol involved. I honestly struggled with the title and went back and forth on the name. Thank you so much for your comment and honesty. Hope you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
This is an incredibly clever idea! Thank you so much for the inspiration!
You’re welcome!
