I am having a slumber party for Molly Sat. night, we are gonna set up a tent and decorate it w/balloons, ribbons, streamers ect. We are gonna let the kids roast wennies and marshmellows,read scary stories and do makeovers, does anyone know of any games they can play? It has been a long time since I went to a slumber party. There are only gonna be around 6 or 7 girls, we could do more but since we are having a camp out and we live on a ranch we decided not to over do it, i remember how rowdy we got and there is just to much they can get into out here so I didnt want more than I could handle.

Any Ideas?

What about "kick the can". That is an old game that my dad used to play "on the farm" and us girls always had fun playing it.

Everyone hides except for one person who stands by the can and counts. Then that person has to try to find and tag someone else before the can gets kicked. If the can is kicked then the person who is it must set it up again before looking for people.

Or hang strings up with marshmellows at the ends and the girls must put their hands behind their backs and try to eat the marshmellows.

Some ideas for you. I have to admit I am a big envious. I have two boys...sigh..lol


1. cookie decorating


2. large free-form murals (squirting paint onto a large surface to make a banner, for example) or using hands and feet dipped into acrylic paint to make a picture. This works well for t-shirts or sheets, as well as walls.


3. International sing-along - songs from different cultures


4. Clapping games


5. Catch the Bunny: Need two balls of different size.

ok I know the odds of this happening are slim, but PLEASE be careful with the marshmello game. A while back some girls were having a party and were playing a similar game where you shove a bunch of marshmello's in your mouth and the marshmello's suffacated one girl and she died. It has freaked me out ever since and I do not allow any kids I know to do this. I do not remember where this was But I do remember seeing it on the news. Just thought I would share.


GL with the party!!

Kim, I saw this as well on Oprah a long time ago. This happened to kids at a party and even at a school! They were trying to see how many marshmallows they could fit into their mouths. That is a good reminder!
