OK, well tomorrow I'm having a winter party with a few of my friends that are all girls. It's going to be a sleepover and so far, 3 of the 4 girls invited are for sure coming. Well, one of the girls I invited had spent the night at my house yesterday and left today. I got a Wii for Christmas and I was planning on playing it at my party but after how my friend acted while she was over here (Constently begging to play it, not stopping when I told her we needed to do something else, not even stopping when her mom came and told her to get her stuff!!) then, I really don't want to play for very long at my party. My mom said that she is going to stop the Wii games after about an hour for me so that we can do other stuff but now I'm wondering what else we can do??

I have pretty much no ideas on what to do there. My ideas I had aren't going to work anymore sooo I was wondering if you girls could help me?? I've looked on google several times trying to look for ideas but I couldn't find anything that would work. I have a very small budget and the party's tomorrow so I need ideas that are very affodable and easy to get.

Thanks for all the ideas!!!

Hmm...4-5 girls? Lessee...

You could (these are classic slumber party things) do each others hair, makeup, paint each others toenails while sharing feelings...always fun, yes? Go easy on the nail polish, though. The fumes'll get to ya'. If you don't have supplies for that you could call up all the girls to see if they'll bring some stuff to use for that. And you could also make face masks...plenty of recipes to find on the interwebz...

There's always Twister, perfect for that amount of people. :0

Umm...I would suggest Murder at Midnight, but I don't think there's really enough people...wait...yes, there is maybe! :0 It also goes by the name of Mafia sometimes...

What about watching a movie? You must have some of those at your house. You can also check out the television guide to see if anything interesting will be on. You could tell ghost stories at midnight? Let everyone know ahead of time and I bet you'll hear some truly creepy tales. Turn out all the lights, get in a circle, and let the terror arise.

I second the spa type thing that Nerd suggested - a lot of girls do that at sleepovers. There's also cooking - you could bake a cake together or make cookies. S'mores are always fun, and they're fairly inexpensive. Board games can be fun, too, or card games. If you don't have any, make up your own. Or ask people to bring them.

There's also just plain old dancing... get some space, crank up the tunes, and just dance for a while. You guys could take a walk around the neighborhood depending on how chilly it is outside. You could have some kind of Talent Show or Karaoke if you're comfortable enough to suggest that.

Don't forget, you don't have to be doing something every minute. Try to plan quieter activities the closer it gets to bedtime, so that you guys will fall asleep easier. If your friends have suggestions, take them into accounts - I bet they've probably got some great ideas, and not just to play the Wii all night, either. After all, the Wii is just new and exciting but I imagine it will get old very quickly with five girls sharing it.

A few things I do suggest, is to tell everyone as soon as they arrive that you're all sleeping on the floor. No fighting over beds and couches that way. Avoid playing Truth or Dare unless everyone is very comfortable with each other. Try to avoid eating a ton of sugar right before bed - it's hard enough to settle down at a sleepover with that. If people start getting too hyped up, try to come up with something that's quieter - looking at magazines, watching a movie, whatever. Also, don't get too angry if your parents peek in on you occasionally. It's better to have them around in case things get out of control, than to not have them present if things do!

I googled it as well, and found a couple of sites that might be helpful. If you've already looked at them, well, it can't hurt to take a second peek: [X] [X] [X].

Above all, remember to have fun. After all, it's your party, too!

OMG! Madlibs are always fun at parties! xD Actually, if you search enough on the internet, there are different ones where someone is reading a list of things to write on a piece of paper (everyone has a piece of paper), they write it down, and then fold it, and pass it left. Then the person starts reading a story while you fill in the blanks, and are able to hear everyone's stories! Though, I learned the hard way people get ticked when you happen to write their names down on the paper, and it just happens to couple them with someone else...

A craft could be fun, like making jewelry or something. I had gotten into beading one year, and decided to have my friends do that at a party, and that was fun! Or another year we made masks.

Have fun and hope this helps!

Well, my party was a blast!! well, one of the girls didn't show up but that was ok. We were totally crazy!!

Except, the bad thing was that my period came that day. The nice thing was that my guests had to all leave early so since I felt so bad, I was able to lay on the couch all day. I didn't get on the computer yesterday because I just wanted to lay on the couch sleeping all day.

But it was fun!!

I find things usually have a way of planing themselves, but that could just be me xD X3
