The new year is a festive time to make resolutions, reflect on the past year, and stay up way too late to see the ball drop. With little ones, this can be challenging. Luckily, the Montshire Museum of Science is here to help make it fun for the whole family while still going to bed at a reasonable time.

On Wednesday, Dec. 31, at noon, the Montshire Museum of Science in Norwich, VT, is holding its New Year’s at Noon event.

“Celebrate the excitement of a new year, without staying up late, at this event full of festive hands-on activities for families with kids aged 0-10. Enjoy stories, balloon races, and dance party countdowns throughout the event,” the website said.

Guests are invited to dress up, dress comfy, or a mix of the two. 

The event is free for kids under the age of two, $12 for members, and $16 for non-members.
