My daughter is having a sleepover on Friday night what activities should I have prepared? My daughter really doesn't do much but watch t.v. but thats not what I want them to do all day and night. I need some ideas. My 7 year old is having a sleepover at the same time, but they're easy. I just don't want to take 5 kids out to the movies or whatever. I need ideas for what to do at home.

MAybe play a few games and buy some snacks for afterwards. I would cave and get them some dvds to keep them quiet in the evening.

If you have a PS2, get Dance Dance Revolution, kids LOVE that game, and it keeps them entertained for HOURS. The new Guitar Hero game is similar (only with a guitar) and that's another popular one. If someone has a Wii, that's another fun idea as well. The other things my daughter did was watch movies at home (I let her rent 1 or 2 but I had veto power). Keep any movies rated PG though, you don't want some child saying that their mother won't let them watch PG13 movies (and yes, thank goodness there are parents out there who have a problem with PG13). I wouldn't take 5 kids to the movie theater either, not on a Friday night when all the high school kids will be there.

Well, I'd say nothing too planned out, just a goodie bag of random stuff. For example: those fun nail sets w/ stick on decals and glitter and fake nails and pick up a handful of colors or a package w/ seven mini bottles w/ all the colors of the rainbow and maybe you could throw them all in the car right when they get there to pick out 2 movies a group. Maybe get a couple recipes for them to make snacks for themselves like cupcakes or brownies and maybe have them make their own mini pizzas. Throw in a girly boardgame and a deck of cards. You should be set. Most parents wouldn't even care- they'd just send the girls to their room to watch tv or do nothing in an empty boring room. I think it's great you're asking for ideas! I'd say throw in a fruit and veggie tray w/ carmel and ranch dip for snacks and some popcorn :-)

hi i am a 13 yr old girl and had a b-day not too long ago
truth or dare is really fun....
spoons Spoons is a fast-paced card game of matching and bluffing played with an ordinary pack of playing cards and several ordinary kitchen spoons or various other objects. Spoons is played in multiple rounds and each player's objective is to be the first in the round to have four of a kind, or to not be the last to grab a spoon. Spoons is most popular among children and teenagers, though many adults play it as well.
its a really cool game..adults play with alcohol if u loose but u can get some carbonated water...gud luck
be creative is my advice 2 u
but anyway spoons is REALLY fun
Hope this helps!

A big hit with my daughters and their friends was karaoke machine and charades (may want to make up some ahead of time-they go through quite a few in a hour). Treasure hunt for inexpensive prizes. I wouldn't suggest giving either party too much sugar or it could get ugly. Try to find some healthy fun foods. Let them make finger jello. Fake nails always entertains them for a while. A good DVD or two to get them to calm down some when you want them to go to bed/sleep (good luck with that).

I have a 12 yr old and they like to cook simple things like peanut butter kiss cookies, cheese dip, ect then of course eat it. I'm not sure if you would approve but my bunch likes to play poker & other card games. My husband plays the part of the dealer helping the newbees to win. (wink wink) It's all in fun. Then they're usually ready to go down to their room and giggle about boys and who said what to who.
P.S. Get ready...if you have more than 2 girls together there WILL be drama before the whold thing is over especially if you have an odd number of girls. They can be brutal to one another!!!!!
Good luck!!!!

you should have like ingredients for cookie ready. so when they come you can let the girls do everything, like mix, and put in oven and stuff... after they could do each others make up like dress them up and those girly things. rent a comedy movie to watch. let them go play out side.. is it snow where you live? maybe they could make a snow man or seomthing... they could have an art drawing/painting contest, you can be the judge since ur a MOM. :) and stuff like that... do each others nails... and i hope this helps. hope ur daughter has a nice SLEEP OVER.

The girls at my daughters sleepover just talked and giggled. They fooled around with make-up, played cd's and ate a lot of pizza.
