Are you a mother that worries that your daughter is turning into a “Material Girl?” Is your daughter more concerned with a name brand of clothing vs. the color? Is your daughter more excited about birthday gifts than her birthday party with friends? Does your daughter have a room full of things and seems to always ask for something new? Are you concerned?

True Club Z girls of course, love the finer things in life but believe that no one should be without and know that their best accessory any girl can own is her ability to give from the heart.

This year turn your daughters’ birthday into an opportunity to teach her how to give.
Start out by requesting on your party invitation that all gifts be donated to your daughters’ favorite charity such as the humane society or local orphanage.

If you think this is too extreme, have your daughter go through her room and sort through her toys, clothes, handbags, accessories and pile up the ones that she has not worn or used in the past few months. Now take your daughter to the local orphanage, women’s shelter or other children’s charity to drop off your donation.

What a wonderful Birthday gift of love for your daughter to give and to receive this year.

So you want to throw a slumber party on a budget?  Can’t say as I blame you. Slumber Party Crafts do not have to break the bank.

This year, think simple and think fun.

Round up a brick for each girl and an assortment of paints, glitter and rhinestones and any other embellishments you would like. Let the girls decorate the flat smooth part any way they choose. 

These Designer Bricks will make great door stops for each of your Slumber Party Girl’s Bedrooms.
 

When the Slumber Party Girls are getting a little wild and crazy, it might be a great time for a fun slow paced game such as The Price is Right – Slumber Party Game.

Before the party take a visit to your local super center and purchase small items such as a bag of potato chips, a jar of pickles, a stuffed animal, a coloring book, a pack of crayons, a tube of lipstick….you get the point. Just make sure that if you have eight girls at the party then you have eight products.

Pass out note cards to each Slumber Party Girl and hold one item up and have the girls try to guess how much it costs. Show the price and award the item to the girl that guesses the closest. That player is out of the game until each girl has won a prize.

A girl that doesn’t like accessories? Impossible! Make this year’s slumber party craft extra-ordinary with Divaliscious Dough Pins. Pin them on a shirt, backpack, ball cap or even a tennis shoe.

This craft allows the Slumber Party girls to not only get some quality time in the kitchen but let’s them express their inner Van Gough in the decorating aspect.

The supplies are simple. Visit your local Super Store or Craft Supply and pick up cookie cutters, magnets, safety pin backs, hot clue, assortment of acrylic paints (I prefer glitter), paint brushes, acrylic sealer, wax paper and a cookie sheet.

When it’s time for your slumber party craft have all of the girls hang out in the kitchen to mix ½ Cup of Salt; 1 Cup of Flour and ½ Cup Water. Knead the dough and roll out with a rolling pin on wax paper (helps to avoid a mess) as if you were making home made sugar cookies. Now use the cookie cutters and cut out your favorite shape and place on a baking sheet. Now bake at 250 degrees for 2 hours. While the cut outs are baking it’s a great time to play a few Slumber Party Games such as Truth or Dare or 20 Questions.

Once the cut outs are baked and have cooled, it’s time to get creative and decorate with the assortment of paints. If the girls want to write their names, acrylic paint pens as well as a toothpick dipped in paint works very well.

When the paint has dried, coat with an acrylic sealer. I prefer the spray kind. Let mess is always best! Now, simply hot glue the pin backs on the back of the little masterpieces to have ready for the girls to wear the next morning.

If you have a birthday near the Christmas Holiday, this craft makes wonderful Christmas ornament. Before baking simply take a straw and push through the dough to make a hole. After baking, decorating and sealing, tie a pretty ribbon or even raffia through the hole to hang on the Christmas tree.

I promise you, the Slumber Party Girls will rave over this way cool Slumber Party Craft!

Who needs a Hot Potato or Musical Chairs when you have this Super Fun Slumber Party Game?

Gather the Slumber Party girls into a Circle and give one of the girls a wrapped present.  It can be large or small depending on your taste and budget. Play some groovy girl hip-hop music and have them pass the present around the circle. When the music stops, the child holding the present gets to keep the present and then drop out of the game. Start another present going around the circle until each girl has had the opportunity to win a fun surprise.

Each Slumber Party Girl is sure to bring along a friend in the form of a soft cuddly teddy bear, rabbit, or puppy dog or cartoon character.  Let these tag along’s help make the Cuddly Wudly Bear Slumber Party Game a real Hit.

Ask all of the Slumber Party Girls to pile their bed buddies into a pile on the floor.  Now blindfold each girl and see who can find their very own sleep sweetie without looking only by feel. 

Grab your camera.  You won’t want to miss this one!

It’s Slumber Party time and you not only want to create memories, you want to capture them.

Capture the fun in this Fabulous Felt Photo Album – Slumber Party Craft.

Visit your local Super Center, Bargain Store, or Craft Store for photo albums, felt fabric, cookie cutters and craft glue. The party girls will be covering the photo albums so you can shop bargain basement and disregard the color or pattern.

Before the party pre-cut the felt fabric to fit the photo albums. You will want to leave about an inch around the edges so that covering the album will be simple. When you are ready to start your Slumber party Craft, have each girl place the photo album in the center of the pre-cut felt and cover the album by gluing the overlapping felt on the inside cover of the album. Have the girls trace shapes from the cookie cutters and cut out their favorite shapes. Then glue the fun shapes on the album for a perfectly customized Fabulous Felt Photo Album.

If you are handy with a digital camera, you can take lots of pictures during the Slumber Party Bash and then download and print and fill each Party Girl’s album with special memory photos for a keepsake they are sure to treasure!

Let’s face it Slumber Party Diva’s make the very best Actresses.  Let your Party Girls show off their acting skills with this Super Fun Academy Award Slumber Party Game.

Create multiple character cards such as doctor, rap star, model, elderly man, etc.  Have one girl leave the room while the other girls sit in a circle taking turns drawing a character card. When the party girl returns to the room she must guess the characters by asking as many questions as she wants. Make sure that the little actresses know that they may use accents, props, stand up and move around the room and anything else they can think of to act out their character. The girl that gets her character guessed the quickest wins the Academy Award.

As a hostess, this is a fun one to have the video camera handy to capture hilarious memories!

Do you know a slumber party girl that loves showing off her rock star moves and jamming out to the latest rock start jam?  I know lots! 

What better way to incorporate this all time fav into your Slumber Party Games than to have a Rock Star Diva Making of the Video.

As the host of the party, tell the girls to do their best Slumber Party make-over Rock Star style.  You can even have fun rock star accessories like toy microphones, boas, hand socks and headphones.  Give the girls a few minutes to pick their fav slumber party music song and choreograph their super sync moves. 

Watch your party girls get creative and map out their rock star music video all thru the house.  While the girls are busy practicing their best grooves, you need to grab your video camera and get ready for the show. 

If you are technically talented, make copies of the video and burn onto CDs for each of the girl to take home as a memento of the Party of the Year.

Question:  What does every Slumber Party Girl bring to the party?
Answer:  Boundless Energy

Let this energy work for you and not against you with this awesome Running Man Game.
Head to the laundry room and grab a bag full of clothes pins.  Round up all of the Slumber Party girls and pin an equal number of clothes pins to the backs of each of the Slumber Party girl.  Is your Sleepover Diva turning 9?  Perfect, attach 9 pins to the backs of each girl. 

Put all of the girls in a circle facing each other with their hands in the middle of the circle.  On the count of three send them all running with the object of the game to get as many pins as possible.  Winner should get a little bag of candy or special prize party favor gift. 

In return, you as the party host will get rid of a little bit of energy that was previously bouncing off your walls.
