Giving some thought to nye, I don't have many friends and family do their own thing so normally just me and kids. Play a few board games, have a laugh, get pizza, eat sweets, watch a movie that sort of thing. But it can be a bit boring just the 3 of us, was thinking about throwing kids a nye party but not sure if anyone would come. Never heard of a kids nye party so just wondering if anyone had? Thrown one? Did kids turn up? Or not a good idea as families like to spend new year together? |

Oh I meant inviting other people's kids over lol not loads just maybe 2/3 friends each to have a bit of a shin dig and let them sleep over. As I don't do much to celebrate anyway I prefer to have my boys at home but think it's boring for them. So if they had a few mates round had a pizza etc might be more fun for them and make it a bit more of a celebration. Just wondering what other parents would think of someone throwing a kids nye party x |

A world of my own |
I find new years eve pretty hard. Was always my dad's time and I miss the chat just after 12 with him.
Ive also had no one to kiss at the bells in 9 years.
Don't get me wrong I love my cosy nights in with my boys but we do that all the time!
Id love to throw a party and have a houseful of friends but I doubt they would come as all do their own things.
Hope yours goes well I think its a nice idea |

We're sure that if you mentioned it to your friends they'd be overjoyed and send their kids round with all the necessary party goods too...We would and we'd include a little something for the hostess. |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
Our neighbours do one so all the kids go there and all the adults have a separate party. We do all meet up for midnight.
Put it out there and see what your children say. As someone else said, others will welcome the chance for them to go out and know their children are being looked after. |

I think you'd have loads of parents biting your hand off!
I don't have anyone to share NYE and haven't had for years and years, so it is just me and wine and normally sleeping before the bells are in lol |

When I was younger my gran used to have a New Year's Eve party and all the kids in the street and other streets would be in the house it would be my gran and my Bampi and my great gran, couple of the neighbours came as well and the adults got pissed and ate Buffett food and us kids were looked after by my great gran. She would dip kids dummy's in her martini, would tell horrible stories about the war and spooky things, would show us all the weird things in her handbag like teeth, rabbits feet, coal and bullet shells from the war. It was brilliant! |
