\n
\n\t
1. Play dress up<\/h5>\n

Have your kids dress up in their fanciest attire. Add feather boas, silly hats, and more to add to the fun. Create\u00a0your own photo backdrop and snap photos\u00a0of the kids to make them feel like they are on their very own red carpet.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t
2. Get crafty and make your own party supplies<\/h5>\n

Check out our Pinterest<\/a> board for some inspiration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t
3. Create a family scrapbook<\/h5>\n

Collect and print out photos from the past year then organize them together in a book. You'll have so much fun reliving the memories!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t
4. Set up a balloon drop<\/h5>\n

\n
\n\t
6. Make a time capsule<\/h5>\n

Get a large box and decorate it (don't forget to include the date). Have everyone in your family write a letter to their future self and pick a few items to place inside the box. Bury or hide the box somewhere and pick a date when you'll open it back up again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n

\n
\n\t
