Having a sleepover can be great fun for your kids but it can be a lot of work for you. Planning in advance can help take some of the stress off and make sure the night is a big success for everyone. Before you make everyone put on their footed pajamas be sure to have some things in order. Here are a few tips to make sure you have a successful night:
Plan – Be sure to have a plan in place and make sure everyone is aware of it. You want a specific drop off time and a pick up time the next morning. There is nothing worse than not being able to get going on your day because you are waiting on someone to pick up their child. 10am is a good time to make sure everyone is gone by.
Food – Be sure to have plenty of food and snacks on hand. Just because your child is a dainty eater doesn’t mean everyone will be. Plan on serving a dinner and a healthy snack after they have changed into their footed pajamas for kids. Breakfast should be light and simple.
Games – Kids need distractions so be sure to plan a few games and activities. If you have mens footed pajamas slip into those to join in the fun. Pick games that are fun in a large group.
