Noon Year's Eve with your kids

Want to celebrate New Year's Eve with your kids but don't want to keep them up late?

Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh has their own celebration - Noon Year's Eve! They will ring in the "noon" year with a kid-friendly celebration, including a ball drop. Guest who wear a First Night Raleigh button receive buy one, get one free admission vouchers (limit 2 free). The festivities will start at 11:30 a.m. (Admission is $5 per person over 1 and older).

Also, thru January 1 there is an Arctic Antics theme throughout the museum.When they have themes, very often they have stations set up around the museum where you can stop and enjoy a craft or activity. My kids are drawn to these stations most of the time. Once they had butterfly stations and the girls played for hours with butterfly wings on their backs. So cute.
