See How Netflix Is Helping Families Ring In the New Year, Whether It's Midnight or Not

Every year on Dec. 31, the entire world gets ready to celebrate the most famous ten seconds of the year: the last ten seconds of the year. Because midnight is way after most little ones' bedtimes (and parents', too!), Netflix has created a solution to help families ring in the New Year together at a much earlier time.

Netflix's kid-friendly countdowns are designed to help parents choose when it's time to celebrate the New Year and say goodnight, and are available through the streaming service in six varieties — Puffin Rock, Inspector Gadget, King Julien, Care Bears & Cousins, Project Mc2, and Mr. Peabody and Sherman. To find them, head over to Netflix and search "New Year's Eve," to let your child choose a video countdown and begin your celebrations as a family.

Make midnight happen whenever you want it to this year so that the kids can get to sleep at a more typical time and you can enjoy the parents-only party (or, you know, just hit the hay yourself!).
