Activities
Choose an activity to do. There are countless things you can do at a sleepover. Here are some things you can do. Be flexible when choosing what to do, and try to choose something everybody wants to do.
Manicures. Play some of your favorite music, get out the nail polish, and paint each others nails.
Makeovers. Get out all your makeup, and see who wants a makeover. Take pictures of all the different makeup styles you use. At the end, choose the one that looks the best. Or even do blind makeovers, they are my favorite, put every ones name in a bowl, then hand out names at random, they are fun and silly, something to get everyone laughing.
Make your own movie. Get a camera and film your friends. Or even make a cool music video.
Sleep outside. If you're bored of always sleeping in a sleeping bag inside, just put up the tent in your backyard and have a camping sleepover.
Play Master Chef. Get some food items and make a mini mystery box challenge with your friends. Judge them and then enjoy a yummy meal. ( Make sure it's OK with the parents before hand, sometimes mom's might even want to supervise.
Talk about boys. A sleepover is one of the only times girls can talk about the boys they like. Remember to keep secrets. Nobody wants one of their secrets out!
Do a prank competition. After 10pm. Tell everyone to stop eating food which will keep you up like caffeinated drinks and sugary food. The first person who sleeps, gets a prank from the other guests. Make sure your guests are even like, two light sleepers and two heavy sleepers. Also make sure everyone is fine with this competition.
Stock up on junk food junk food, and goodies. Caffeinated drinks and sugary foods are good for staying up all night. Good snack foods include popcorn, pretzels, cookies, crisps, gummy bears, chocolate, etc. Ask your friends beforehand if they have any food allergies.
Watch movies. You can rent them or you can pick some from your home collection. What's a sleepover without a movie or two? Chick flicks like "Angus, Thongs & Full Frontal Snogging," "Sydney White," or "Easy A" are always good, as well as romantic comedies. However, if your friends and you aren't really into the girly movies and are more into thrillers or horror movies, that's good too. Pick movies like "The Grudge" and "When a Stranger Calls." Just make sure that everyone there is comfortable watching whatever movie you pick and no one gets too scared! If you want, ask around before the sleepover to see if anyone wants to watch a certain movie. Try to stick with PG or PG-13 movies, as most parents don't like it when their kids watch R rated movies due to inappropriate content.
Games
"Pick a Question": Everyone writes down a few questions, such as "Who will be the first to get married?". Then everyone answers them on a note pad.
Play "Would You Rather": Ask questions to each other, like, "" So childish but funny at the same time because you have to answer.
Play truth or dare.
Play flashlight tag in your neighborhood. Make sure a parent is aware that you are out running around, and be sure to be quiet so you do not disturb the neighbors!
Game counsel games. This includes Wii, PlayStation, and Xbox games. If you don't have enough remotes, take turns. Remember, nobody should feel left out.
Tell secrets. ( If you are at another friends sleepover, they might not have the same friends as you. If they have a friend who can't keep a secret or that maybe doesn't like you that well, don't tell your deepest darkest secrets, they could get out to the whole school within a few days.) Make up ghost stories or read them from a book.
Buy a plain pillowcase and some permanent markers and have you and your friends sign it and doodle on it.
Have your computer ready! Be sure that your friends are going to want to go on it to update their Facebook status, look at pictures of hot celebrities, or anything else.
Dance to music, provided your guests want to. If you have an iPod or MP3 player, make a slumber party play-list with all of your favorite songs. If you have a stereo, ask everyone to bring in their favorite CD's so you can play them during the sleepover. Another option is to simply turn on a radio station that you all love.
Prank calls. Prank calls are fun, just make sure you don't prank call people after 10pm. Don't prank call strangers or businesses. Friends are usually okay to prank call. Never prank call someone who can't take a joke. Perhaps call one of the girls boyfriends or just your boy friends, usually they are the ones who takes jokes the best.
Read the latest teen magazines. For teen girls, this usually means gossip magazines. Go buy some or have the ones you already have out and ready to be read by your friends. Don't bring out ones that are more than a year old, because then the news in them will be old.
Take pictures. If you girls have social networking sites like Facebook, you can post and share the pictures afterwards.
Play hide and seek outside when it gets dark. Front or back yard but just remember to be quiet.
Have a fashion show in all your cutest trends. If someone isn't very trendy/doesn't have nice clothes, have some on hand.
