From LoveToKnow Party

There are endless things to do at a slumber party. Pick a few of your favorites and have a blast with your friends.

Ideas For Things To Do At a Slumber Party

There are so many more things to do at a slumber party other than the typical pillow fight. Of course gossiping about the latest news in school and sharing secrets with your friends remain top on the list, but there are other things to do that can make the night fun and memorable.

Spa Night

Who doesn’t like to be pampered? Why not host a spa night at your next sleepover and have your friends relax and look beautiful in the process? Some spa services to have at home include:

  • Manicures – Take turns painting each other's nails in the latest shades of polish.
  • Pedicures – Pamper your feet in a relaxing footbath then paint them in a fun shade of polish.
  • Face masks – Relax with a facial right in your own home.

Be sure to have scented candles lit to create a spa-like atmosphere and provide an assortment of lotions and fragrances. Better yet, ask your friends to bring their favorite scents or nail polish for you to try. Offer fresh fruit and sparkling water as part of the spa experience.

Night At The Movies

Watching a good movie in your pajamas is one of the best things to do with your friends. Make your slumber party into a movie night and rent several movies to keep you occupied. Try a horror flick to keep you awake late into the night. Complement the movie with popcorn and any of your favorite movie-time snacks.

Music Of The Night

Ask your friends to bring their favorite CDs or iPod tunes. Share music and have fun listening and dancing the night away. To add a fun twist to your tunes, have a karaoke contest or a dance contest and vote for your most talented friend.

Food, Food and More Food

No slumber party can be complete without a yummy assortment of food. Some food ideas to consider:

  • Order in your favorite foods such as pizza
  • Make cookies, rice crispie treats or smores
  • Make your own ice cream sundaes

Fun Games

Adding in a game or two at your slumber party can be a fun way to pass the night. There are endless slumber party games that you and your friends can play, including:

  • Board games such as Apple to Apples, Scrabble or Uno
  • Wii
  • Truth or Dare

Outdoor activities can be done earlier in the evening. Taking a walk or having a scavenger hunt can be fun. If your friends like sports, why not play volleyball or even a game of tag? Remember to have fun and enjoy the company of those around you.

Final Thoughts

Since the possibilities are endless when it comes to things to do at a slumber party, pick a few that you know your friends will enjoy. Sometimes the best thing to do is to share stories and create new memories with your friends. Be sure to have a camera on hand to capture any unforgettable moments as they take place during the night. If you have a printer, you could print some photos immediately for your friends to take home. Since it is unlikely that a lot of sleeping will happen the night of your slumber party, be considerate and hold it on the weekend to better accommodate your parents. Be sure to notify your parents of any ideas you are planning for the night and make sure that they approve.
