Somehow New Year’s Eve wouldn’t be the same without those obnoxious noise makers! Take advantage of this tradition because it is the only time your neighbors won’t call the police on those loud noises at midnight ; )
Fun Fact: Just like fireworks, noise makers were believed to frighten the evil spirits and scare them away during ancient times. They were used to promise a good start to the new year, and the tradition is still in tact today! Now you know what you are doing when you are blowing into those noisy little party favors!
