Somehow it is a right of passage for little girls to attend a pajama party. A pajama party is fantastic way for girls to enjoy each other's company by playing various party games, eating great food and sharing stories about boys.
Party Supplies and Decorations - Party supplies and decorations for a pajama party are minimal. One necessary party supply includes pajama party invitations. Parents and children should know that this is a pajama party and arriving in pajamas is acceptable and encouraged. Suggest children bring their own pillows, stuffed animals, and nighttime supplies, e.g., toothbrushes, change of clothes, and sleeping bags.
There must be sleeping arrangments made in advance for all the kids. Inflatable mattresses, cots, and additional blankets and lines should be provided. To create a cozy ambience for the pajama party select scented candles, streamers, balloons, and lights.
Pajama Party Food & Drink - There are numerous foods to serve at a pajama themed party. Pizza, cookies, and ice cream are all tasty choices. Include a fruit or veggie platter to ensure children receive some nutritional benefits during the pajama themed party.
When it comes to breakfast, eggs, bacon, pancakes, orange juice and cereal are delicious breakfast time foods. Always include healthy alternatives such as oatmeal and various fruits for breakfast.
Remember this party will last all night so have a lot of games and activities planned.
Truth or Dare: This is a classic game in which generations of children and adults have participated in. Parents should come up with appropriate truth and dare. Keep the game fun and lighthearted.
Murder Mystery: Murder Mystery is an easy-to-play pajama party game that will keep guests attentive and entertained. Parents should cut out slips of paper for every party guest, writing murderer on just one of the slips and leaving the others blank. The girls then draw a slip of paper without showing it to anyone else. During the course of the party the murderer kills other players by winking at them. When winked at, the player should count to three and fall on the floor. At any point players can accuse other players of murder. The catch is if the player who accuses the murderer is wrong, they must die as well.
There are lots of games and activities for pajama parties like; Name That Tune, trivia games on TV shows and movies, and scavenger hunts. Showing various romantic comedies or horror movies (which may not be age appropriate), is also a nice way for girls to enjoy the pajama party.
