Buy cheetos, chips, pretzels, and some different kind of sodas for food. Maybe ice cream sundaes. For movies I suggest Get Smart, The House Bunny (These are PG-13, so make sure it's okay with your mom). High School Musical 1, 2, or 3 is always a good sleepover one. You can dance, play truth or dare, video games, board games, or even just plain out talk about life! Hope this helps! Maybe ask what they would like to do, then you can have an idea of what they like!

My friends and I always have sleepovers. I know what you mean. You kind of just sit there and wait for something to happen....but if y ou are with good, close friends, that won't happen. I guess it's so easy for me because my friends and I like to laugh. We laugh more than we breathe, basically. Usually, my friends come at around 1. I'm 14, too, but my friends and I still love doing cool stuff....cool, fifth grade stuff. We turn up the stereo and make up dances, we draw board games and then play them, we play Monopoly almost always, and we usually go on the computer. Most of the time, we eat around 6. The five hours before, we make all of our favorite things last. Then, around 7, we make popcorn, or grab ice cream bars, and retire to the living room for a comedy. We sit around and giggle. Sometimes we watch Gossip Girl, or Hannah Montana. For the heck of it. Then we just sit around and talk deep into the night. We never plan anything, we just go with the flow. My girls and I usually get tired out around 1-ish....we gossip for so long!!!!



I hope you have an AMAZING sleepover. Also, don't make a sleepover a party. Have a party, or have a sleepover. Don't have a party and top it with a sleepover. That's when it gets boring. Think of it as you hanging out at your friend's house, and just talking, playing games, and watching moives. You'll have fun, trust me.



Don't invite more than five girls! 3 is a crowd....make sure there is at least an even number so that no one is left out.

here are ideas hope u like them

Ask people to set up their sleeping bags as soon as they get to your house.

*Announce that no one can sleep on sofas or beds. It causes fighting sometimes.

*Stay outside until it gets dark and get as much fresh air as you can before you're crammed in a room with a bunch of other people for the whole night.

*Play outdoor games or organize a scavenger hunt around your neighborhood before dinner.

*Rent a movie and make lots of popcorn beforehand. *Set up a "concession stand" in the room where you're watching the movie and give every guest a plate to load up with popcorn, candy, and other treats.

*Avoid Truth or Dare, especially when some of the guests are very hyper. Truth can make people embarrassed about the questions being asked, and Dare can get out of hand.

*If you have a younger sister or brother who might try to bug your guests or wreck your party, ask your mom or dad if they can find something special for your siblings to do during your party. Maybe they can go on a camping trip with one of your parents, or to dinner and a movie. Your brother or sister might want to have a friend spend the night so they don't feel so left out. Just make sure that it's not a friend who would want to bug you and your guests, too!

*Set out a few board games so the ones who don't fall asleep right away can quietly keep themselves busy.

*Get something special for breakfast or easy.

Donuts, bagels & cream cheese, fruit with whip cream and dip, individual juices.





Things You Will Need For the Party:

Food and snacks

*buy snacks such as: pretzels, chips, cheese curls, etc.



*get soda, maybe ice tea mix..lemonade...



GAMES



Scavenger hunts

Let's Make a Deal:

You will need three boxes. Prizes of varying quality-really cool, ok and a booby prize. Each child has a chance to play so make sure you have enough "really cool" prizes to go around. Place one prize of each type under the boxes without anyone seeing. The contestant chooses a box and the prize is revealed. The contestant can then keep that prize or be given the choice to choose another. Offer incentives, like other prizes-candy, money etc. to see if they will keep the first chosen. They may keep either the first prize and incentives or choose the other box. This is their final choice.

Mummy:

Need rolls of toilet paper, one per person. You can form teams to see who is the fastest dressing their mummy (other person) or just let them have fun. This can be very messy with the dust from the toilet paper and the paper fight afterwards.

Invite more friends and make it a slumber party.

1) Make lots of junk foods like brownies, chips, popcorn, soda, pizza.

2) Everyone should bring a pillow and sleeping bag

3) Do manicures on each other

4) Do Pedicures on yourself

5) Make homemade chocolate chip cookies and eat the dough. (not the frozen or refrigerated dough, Homemade dough!) Bake any that is left.

6) DVD movies

7) CD's to listen to

8) Everyone should clean their room and bring along all clothes they don't want, shoes, jewelry. Then everyone trades. One pair of shoes for one pair of shoes, one pair of jeans for one pair of jeans. If someone brings nothing, they get to take home nothing.

9) Take lots of pictures. You will remember the fun when you are 40.

10) Smile and have a great time.

maybe you are over thinking everything and are paranoid that no one is hacing a good time? it may all be in your head!



im not sure what you and your friends like to do, or what you are into but i would suggest something that would make you laugh! like a funny movie, game, karaoke?



i remember watching grease! playing bop it! karaoke, making up dances, board games, baking cookies, or making deserts! whatever you guys are into just roll with it.



you can play games like MASH (predicting the future) lol or anything like that that is ligthhearted,doesnt require "directions" its just easy going and most likely you will just end up laughing at the answers.



dont think so much about what you are going to do and just be casual, girl talk, do whateever!

Don't have a sleepover just to have one, it's not something to do.



The only time I ever stayed over my friends' houses are when we were planning to play video games all night or if I didn't feel like going home, something like that. Not just because we wanted to have a sleepover.

Well, you could probably let everyone else come up with the ideas, and have a few of your own.



Watch movies, make homemade cookies, draw portraits of eachother, practice yoga positions, be CREATIVE! Redecorate your room! The list is endless!

having a movie is always a 'safe' thing to do, depending on how close ya'll are, you could play truth or dare to make things interesting, party food. once a friend and i stayed up chatting with our good friend overseas and it was a blast- something we still talk about. dunno really. play games?
