Overview

Countdown bags make the evening feel like a celebration for kids. Write a time on each of the twelve cards, tape it to a bag with a treat or the supplies inside, and open one every hour: a dance party, party hats, a blanket fort, karaoke and more.

The pack also has a picture scavenger hunt, an all-about-me time capsule to open next year, goals cards and a word scramble. Not staying up? Count down to noon instead.
