my daughter is turning 10 in two weeks and she’s asked for a sleepover.
i’ve allowed her to invite 8 girls (yes, i’m crazy-i have 3 daughters at home!! there will be 11 girls in my house)
i’ve allowed for her to have a small dinner/cake party before the sleepover since alot of the girls have younger siblings. this isn’t a huge ordeal-just grilling hamburgers/hot dogs, having salad/fruit platter and then her cake.
her cake:
http://www.coolest-birthday-cakes.com/coolest-slumber-party-16.html (will look similar to this-i’m using edible gemstones in place of the sprinkles)
games:
hide and go seek-glow in the dark style. i’m using glowing stars,hearts,bracelets,etc. i’ll hide these items throughout the house/yard and the girls will have 5 mins (using flashlights for safety) to find the glowing items. person who finds the most wins a prize (makeup kit). the girls get to keep the stuff they find.
spin the bottle nail polishing: I will place 8 bottles of different colored nail polish in a circle-the girls will spin an empty coke bottle and whatever color nail polish it lands on, this is the color polish they’ll use for their nails.
craft:
-fancy flip flops: I bought each girl a set of colorful flip flops from old navy (only 2.50 each). they will use fabric strips, rhinestones, mini shells, bells, boas,etc to decorate them
movie: either "13 going on 30" or "aquamarine"
goody bags: chocolate candies, homemade chocolate lip gloss, stickers, the nail polish they colored their nails with, and disposable cameras to take pics with throughout the night.
snacks:
-chips w/velveeta dip
-popcorn
-chips
-mini pigs in a blanket (little smokies wrapped in crescent rolls)
-soda
her gifts are:
-American girl doll-Julie
-new bike (which she already got last month)
-hannah montana game
-games for her didj (similar to nintendo DS)
so what do you think?!!
It sounds good, they’ll have a great time! Good luck!
Don’t forget something to eat for breakfast!!

i think that sounds really fun.
that cake is adorable.
one of my friends had about 17 kids sleep over her house, and it didn’t go bad at all.
hopefully your daughter’s party will be well controlled like that one, but i’m sure it will be if there’s things to do.

Sounds like fun! Better than any party my mom ever threw me.
I have one fun game suggestion that I had at my twelfth birthday party that was tons of fun and pretty cheap (I was looking through pictures recently and had a lot of hilarious memories from that party). We were paired up and each pair got a roll or two of toilet paper (along with streamers, rhinestones, stickers, markers and other things) and had a certain amount of time to dress each other up in toilet paper dresses. It sounds kind of lame written down, but it was sooo much fun! One girl dressed another up as the statue of liberty (using the toilet paper roll stuffed with streamers as a torch). This is an especially good game if your daughter has really creative friends.
By the way, the cake is adorable!
