If you’re hoping to celebrate New Year’s Eve without the kids and are looking to avoid the cost of a babysitter, Netflix has just the solution for you. The streaming platform has introduced a delightful array of kid-friendly countdowns designed to help families ring in the new year well ahead of midnight.

These countdowns last about three minutes each and showcase popular children’s characters such as the Care Bears, Inspector Gadget, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, and King Julien from the Netflix series All Hail King Julien. Your little ones can choose their preferred countdown based on their favorite character, allowing you to usher in the new year as early as 8, 9, or even 10 p.m. Once the kids are tucked in for the night, you can kick back and enjoy your favorite adult beverages and shows in peace.

Last year, Netflix offered just one countdown, but they’ve expanded their collection after a survey revealed that nearly 50% of parents in the U.S. would prefer to celebrate with their children while still getting them to bed by 9 p.m. In fact, 41% of parents admitted to using similar countdowns to help their kids settle down for the night. With this new feature, Netflix is making it easier for parents to navigate New Year’s Eve without the added stress.

While children might wish to stay up late and join in the festivities, the reality is that most won’t make it until midnight. Even adults often struggle to stay awake, myself included. Netflix’s countdowns provide a fun way for kids to participate in the celebrations while still ensuring that parents enjoy some much-needed adult time before sleep. Just check out how adorable these countdowns are:

As a parent of two toddlers, I fully plan to have them in bed by 8 p.m. on New Year’s Eve. With their ages below five, there’s little benefit to keeping them up late, only to deal with the aftermath of overtired children. Fortunately, with a few party hats and some inexpensive noisemakers from the dollar store, along with Netflix’s countdown, I can celebrate early and smoothly.

One day, my kids will be able to stay up until midnight without turning into pumpkins. Until then, technology helps make the night more enjoyable for everyone involved.
