## About

Designed specifically for toddlers and young children who will be fast asleep long before midnight, Children's Fairyland hosts its Alice in Wonderland-themed daytime New Year celebration. The highlight is an energetic countdown to 12:00 noon complete with bubbles, noisemakers, and a joyful confetti drop in the Merry Meadow.

Kids can dance at the DJ party, create celebratory party hats and noisemakers at themed craft stations, and toast the early arrival of 2027 with a fizzy 'Shrinking Drink.' All activities are included with general admission and free for members, with wide stroller paths and family restrooms throughout.
