New Year’s Eve Family Dinner Ideas

These New Year’s Eve Family Dinner Ideas are perfect to prepare to share a special New Year’s Eve at home with your family.

My kids are 9 and 11 years old and we have celebrated every New Year’s at home since they were born. We always make a special meal, snacks, desserts and drinks to bring in the new year as a family.

And, because my kids don’t quite make it to midnight, we have our own countdown a few hours earlier. Thanks to YouTube we are able to watch a countdown from previous years, complete with fireworks and all the joy!
