Noon Year's Eve at the Denver Children's Museum

We don't usually go out on New Year's Eve. For one thing, it's crazy tough to find a babysitter that night. And, it's total amateur night.But, I do like to take the kiddos to this event at the Denver Children's Museum - this year it's on Friday December 31st...they have a super big glittery ball that drops down a pole with a big countdown every hour on the hour -- one year we watched it 3 times with playtime in the Museum in-between!Then, the kids celebrate by jumping on huge sheets of bubble wrap - it's awesome, sounds just like fireworks, and what kid doesn't love bubble wrap?Schedule of Events:
