3, 2, 1, NOON! Providence Children’s Museum holds daytime New Year’s Eve bash for little ones
The Providence Children’s Museum is throwing its annual mid-day New Year’s Eve celebration TODAY, December 31st from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Young party-goers and their grown-ups can ring in 2025 while the sun is still shining!
Families can enjoy all the excitement of a New Year’s celebration without staying up past bedtime. When the clock strikes NOON little merrymakers will count down together as their dazzling ball makes its descent. Avoid the yawns and meltdowns of little ones who just as soon be in bed for hours by that midnight toll. Congressman Gabe Amo will be leading the museum in the countdown to Noon!
“Who needs midnight when you’ve got noon?” says Caroline Payson, Executive Director of Providence Children’s Museum. “Our Noon Year’s Eve celebration brings all the sparkle and excitement of New Year’s Eve, perfectly packaged for our youngest party people. The joy on children’s faces as they count down to noon is absolutely priceless!”
What the party will be like:
• “Toe-tapping tunes” from the amazing Rock-A-Baby band
• Creative craft stations for little hands to stay busy make festive masterpieces
• Countdown!
• A ball drop
• Full access to all of PCM’s exhibits and play spaces
Visit PCM’s website at www.providencechildrensmuseum.org to reserve your spot. This event is free with admission. Standard admission is $16 for adults, infants under 1 are free, and children ages 1-11 are $16. Discounts are available for members and with library passes.
The Providence Children’s Museum serves children and adults of all backgrounds and from all communities. Its focus is on children, ages 1 to 11, and the adults who care for them by presenting hands-on, play-based exhibits and programs that explore arts, culture and science, technology, engineering, and math.
