Game/activity ideas for 14 yr. old girl sleepover party

[Liz]

We're having a party tonight for my DD's 14th birthday. We have a few ideas but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has any other ideas for something fun for them to do! (Especially something where I won't have to run to the store again to buy prizes, etc.!)

Thanks!

How about going to the dollar store (or discount cosmetics store) and get a bunch of different nail polishes & supplies for them to do manicures/pedicures?

Sorry... I missed that part

How about baking some cookies or something? Otherwise, just movies, pizza, popcorn and a telephone.

I too was going to suggest manicures/pedicures but surely you must have some nail polish in the HOUSE that you wouldn't have to run out to buy....

If you don't mind the mess, maybe you can have them have a "bake off" contest where each team of girls (split the girls up evenly if possible) gets to bake a cake & decorate it with whatever you may have in your pantry. (Of course, they have to clean up too but I know you'll have to do "follow up" cleaning.)

I have 2 boys so I can't offer too much more advice....just thought of stuff I did (many moons ago).

Good luck!

You can't go wrong with videos/DVD's, but make sure what you're showing is OK with the parents involved, unless it's "G", where you pretty much can't go wrong.

Our DD wasn't interested in having sleepovers any more after about 12, so we didn't have to be concerned about parties any more. She's 17 now and for about the last 3 years or so, she just wants to have a few friends to a restaurant for dinner.

When she turned 16, we took them all to a Japanese Steak House (with the little cooking show at the table) and we stayed there, but sat at a different table from them (actually a different ROOM!).

Have fun!
