To say 2020 was a tough year for parents is an understatement. Now that it’s (thankfully!) nearing a close, we wanted to look back at some of the people, places, and things that helped make it possible to keep some semblance of sanity.

23 Family-Friendly New Year’s Traditions from around the World

Submitted by Meghan Rose on Fri, 12/25/2020 - 11:25pm

One thing that no one got to do much of this year was travel. The chance to explore other lands, foods, customs, and cultures was sorely missed by many of us at Mommy Poppins. So, to celebrate the end of the year, we thought it would be fun to plan a trip around the world without ever leaving the house.
