He would just fall asleep at some point around 8. Haha. In the future we may do it! Far in the future like when he's in elementary school haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671823 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 07:51:21 +0000 looch 2671823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never attempted it so I have no idea what would happen if he stayed up to midnight...but I don't even want to stay up until midnight! </p> <p>It might be different if we hosted some large event in our home, but we purposely do not so that we can leave and go to bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671805 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 03:40:17 +0000 Pumuckl 2671805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we'll celebrate (2y + 4y old) with the other families on our private road at 7pm and then it's bedtime after that. So they'll be up a little late but not much. They probably would sleep in a little but they'd be way too tired to make it to midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671804 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 03:14:57 +0000 JCCovi 2671804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, DD is 3.5 and DS is almost 2. Even if I wanted to I could keep them up that late and the next day (or days) would be awful. </p> <p>We usually toast at Greenwich Mean time anyway.</p> <p>This year we're going to be on a Disney cruise and I'm hoping they'll have an early countdown. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671799 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 02:45:29 +0000 808love 2671799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal time in the past but she is almost six so I might let her try this year. We are on a trip right now so we would be at a decent but late hour in our home time zone. It might be ok just this once.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671798 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 02:44:57 +0000 Kemma 2671798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're planning to be home from our celebrations by 2000 and have the kids in bed shortly after (it's a party for local families so we'll start early and finish early) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671794 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 01:59:07 +0000 ALV91711 2671794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way. DS is 3.5 and won't sleep later if he is up later. We've been so busy this week he has been going to bed early. </p> <p>I'm hoping I can make it to midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671788 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 01:23:55 +0000 birdofafeather 2671788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way! I feel cranky being up that late! I think we've celebrated New York New Years twice (9 pm) and that's the latest I'd push it for a long while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671786 Fri, 30 Dec 2016 00:55:14 +0000 sapphire 2671786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will be with grandparents but no way I would let her stay up! Maybe by late Elem school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671772 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 23:35:37 +0000 jhd 2671772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have no plans to go anywhere this year, but I wouldn't be opposed to going somewhere and letting LO stay up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671771 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 23:29:32 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2671771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol I don't even think I'll be up at midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671769 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 23:26:51 +0000 Mrsbells 2671769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: we use the netflix fake countdown for kids. she loves it and thinks its really midnight </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671763 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 23:13:06 +0000 kiddosc 2671763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I'm pretty sure I won't even make it to midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671750 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:42:20 +0000 Purpledaisy 2671750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way! When they are older they can. But at almost 4 y/o and 7 m/o they don't even grasp what is going on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671747 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:35:23 +0000 snowjewelz 2671747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! DD1 does not do well... She typically will not just sleep in and still do her 10 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671732 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:14:56 +0000 sunnyday 2671732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck no. Mine won't know the difference it's another day. I won't likely make it beyond 10pm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671727 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:07:56 +0000 lawbee11 2671727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think she'd stay up til midnight even if we wanted her to...she'd probably crash on the couch. We'll let her stay up a little later but definitely nowhere near midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671726 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:07:50 +0000 Mama Bird 2671726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS has starting at 18 months. DD hasn't, but last NYE she woke up fifteen minutes to midnight so she got to ring it in with us. But... this is the first time in three years that it's falling on a weekend, which means no day care and no nap for DS. I don't think he'll be able to stay up so late this year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671724 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 22:05:03 +0000 katsupgirl 2671724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is the first year I'm conflicted. She usually stays up but this year I have to figure out how to get back on track for school after. More than likely she will be up celebrating with everyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671678 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 21:20:12 +0000 nana87 2671678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No definitely not. When she was like 9 months she woke up right before midnight and so we "celebrated " together but she had no idea, haha. She's still too young (2.5) to even get the concept, anyway, like we're still explaining the differences in seasons so there's no way she'd understand what the differences in years are </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671672 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 21:14:20 +0000 mediagirl 2671672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way!!! She will be in bed by 7:30 as normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671669 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 21:11:37 +0000 catgirl 2671669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. She's only 2 so I think it will be quite awhile before we'd let her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671653 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 20:54:25 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2671653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. He doesn't sleep in after staying up late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671649 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 20:52:02 +0000 yoursilverlining 2671649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I consider myself to be a pretty-to-very laid back parent but no way. LO doesn't get cranky staying up late and wouldn't meltdown but she also won't sleep in and needs more than 6 hours of sleep. Dealing with a preschooler on 6 hours of sleep the next day is a big nope for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671640 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 20:44:12 +0000 Foodnerd81 2671640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>F*ck no. </p> <p>Too much? But no way. That would not be fun for anyone. Normal time or maybe half an hour late. We haven't gone to a NYE party since before inwas pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-stay-up-for-nye#post-2671635 Thu, 29 Dec 2016 20:37:54 +0000 Boogs 2671635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you let your LO stay up until midnight on New Year's Eve, or do you put them to bed like normal?</p> <p>We usually aren't home, so as far as I can remember our LOs have always stayed up with everyone until midnight. Then, back home we go and they fall right to sleep on the drive and everyone enjoys a sleep in day the day after. </p>
