Host a Sleepover Party

by Carly Ogborne (subscribe)

Remember how it exciting it was to have a sleepover when you were young? Staying up late, eating ridiculous amounts of junk and watching trashy movies... Modify the main ingredients slightly to enjoy a grown up sleepover.

Junk food
The host is required to provide way too much food. Chips and chocolate were the staples when you were a child but that's not going to be appropriate now. Start with sushi bites, cheese and crackers and Turkish bread and homemade dips, and chase it with the ultimate sleepover food – pizza.

A grown up sleepover party is not complete without cocktails. Serve up a signature cocktail or ask your guests to bring a bottle of alcohol to really spice things up.

Beauty treatments
Paint each other's nails, do each other's hair and why not try some home remedies?

Games
Truth or dare, Never Have I Ever and karaoke are fun activities at all ages.

Movies
At the end of the night, set up your sleeping bags in front of the TV and unwind with some movies. Choose appropriately girly flicks like My Girl, Thelma and Louise, The Notebook and anything starring Molly Ringwald.
