Celebrate the new year a little early Friday
Join the Knock Knock Children’s Museum for a special family-friendly New Year’s Eve celebration this Friday, Dec. 31.
Because this event is happening a little early, the Knock Knock is cleverly calling it “Noon Year’s Eve.” While adults watch the ball drop at midnight on Friday, the kiddos can get in on the fun by watching a hand-crafted ball drop at noon. There will also be programs and presentations that will teach children how other parts of the world ring in the new year.
“Noon Year’s Eve” is from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. with the ball dropping at noon. There are no tickets, but you do have to register and pay the regular admission price of $14. Knock Knock Children’s Museum is at 1900 Dalrymple Drive.
