I remember my childhood, this was the best thing from my childhood memories, making a tent in house on my bed. I think for any kids sleepover idea, this should be in their. I remember what excitement it was to make a camp out of clips, bedsheets, wooden planks, battery lights, etc.. We use to make the house an interesting camp sight that use to look amazing.

I am sure you can also do the same and even you might already be planning for this. There are many things you can do with only things from in house. Let the night be amazing in those camps.

2. Dress code

3. Photo session

If their is dress code, if there is decorations then why not a photo shoot session. Let the day be memorable in photos that you can cherish for years. Hire a professional photographer or have a DSLR with you to capture the fun of the party in pictures.

4. Music games

Musical games

Let the rocking music in the house to make it more entertaining. I know you like music and i know you like to dance and groove. So in this slumber party idea you can have some music. You can even go for a some music game to make it more interesting. Example:

  • Musical Sleeping Bag
    It is like a musical chair game, but the difference is here you are using a sleeping bag for the game. For people who don’t know about this game. This game requires a big space so that you can place the bags in a circular formation. For the game you should have one bag less than the no. of participants. When participants are ready and the bags in the circular form, start the music. As soon as the music stops, participants run for the bags. The one who is left out is out of the game and the one who stays till the end wins the game.

 5. Air balloon Schedule pop up

Now this is really interesting sleepover game. A party is awesome when it is well managed and scheduled for each activity. But planning with a paper list and checking it for time is quite boring. I have one idea for you that requires inflated balloons.

Have few balloons inflated with gas. On each balloon write down the one activity and also the time of activity. For example at 10 P.M you have planned a musical game, then write the same on a balloon. Write the time of activity and activity name.

So this way you will have different balloons for different activities. The interesting thing about this is that you pop up only that balloon that resonate the activity. For example at 10 you raise and pop the 10 P.M balloon only.

6. Fashionista night

Fashionista night

This is for girls who are looking up for their sleepover party ideas. Let the birthday girl and other guest girls bring their fashion and makeup stuff in the house. I know rest need not required to be explained.

Have a time slot for the girls to be more fashionable and explore each other stuff. For example, they will use different color nail polish, they will have different make up kit and apparels to be explored from each other.

I am sure you must be knowing about this game, if not then let me tell you what it is and how it is played. As you can see in the picture, you have one ball on which you have to write different questions with some bit space in between each other.

For this game all people sit in a circle and music starts. As soon as the music starts they pass the ball in a circular way so that the ball reaches to all and circulate. When the music stops you catch the person who holds the ball then you check his/her thumb. As when he/she holds the ball he/she must have the thumb on one question.

This question is asked in the group and the person who is involved answers that question. So write all the wired, funny, hilarious questions on the ball to make it more fun.
