✨Do I host a lot of slumber parties? Yes! I loved them as a kid and I also spent 10 summers of my life at a sleep away camp and I loved quietly chatting with my bunk mates at night and waking up in the morning surrounded by my friends! It’s a special time together! My daughter asks me almost every weekend to have a friend sleepover! I have hosted 4 slumber parties for my daughter’s birthdays.
✨Here are my tips for a successful night:
1. Tell parents a few days ahead of time that you will be taking technology away at a certain time (even the remote!) because we want everyone to sleep!
2. Keep all overnight bags in a different location in order to minimize extra stuff in the Glampsite.
3. Come up with a few activities for the kids to do. We have done crafts, played board games, charades, Tik Tok dances, and told stories (some scary!)This year they played Headbands (fun app!), a Blind White Elephant Game as well as The Plastic Wrap Game which they loved!
4. Every glamper gets a lantern which acts as a night light if needed!
5. Wind the evening down with quieter activities like a movie!
6. I honestly limit sugar. This keeps things much calmer and happier kids!
