    Why you should create a New Year’s Time Capsule with your kids

    December 31, 2017 - By 

    This time last year I sat down and thought about how I wanted to celebrate the New Year with my children.

On New Year’s Eve we usually have a nice family meal and play a board game – pretty low key but a lovely way to mark the end of a year. Just like last year I’ll be printing out the Printable New Year’s Resolution for Kids 2018 from…
