Organizing a spa version sleepover is an original and fun idea for all girls aged 9 and up. Spa-style sleepovers feature lots of fun activities - such as manicures, pedicures, foot baths, and face masks. Remember: to have an unforgettable party you will need a lot of creative ideas!
Steps
Step 1. If you live with your parents, ask their permission first
Talk to your parents to make sure you can have a sleepover. Make sure your parents don't have any other plans and that there will be no interruptions during the party. If you don't want to have brothers or sisters around, politely ask them to stay in their room, or invite them to join the party!
Step 2. Invite
Send out invitations in the shape of a slipper, face mask, or other spa-related theme. Include the place and the start time of the party and how you want to receive confirmation of participation. Clearly explain the type of party you will be having. If you prefer to use e-mail to send invitations, make sure you have the correct addresses.
Step 3. Make small changes in your home to create a "relaxed spa atmosphere"
To do this, replace the bright bulbs with soft ones, prepare lots of candles and use aromatherapy fragrances such as lavender, which is very relaxing.
Step 4. Make a list of the things your friends need to bring
For example: lip gloss, brush, dressing gown, lotions, candles, towels, DVDs, etc.
Step 5. Make sure you order the house to make your guests feel comfortable
This step is very important: clutter is not relaxing at all. Also prepare original towels or dressing gowns for guests to use.

Arrange the beds; prepares drinks and food for the guests.

It is advisable to choose relaxing fragrances, such as lavender and sandalwood. To make the atmosphere even more relaxing, also play background music, such as the sound of rain or waves on the beach.

Start with a massage, manicure or pedicure and use a toothpick to draw designs on your nails.

- Make sure no one feels sad, uncomfortable, or cut off from activities.
- It is advisable to organize the sleepover on a Saturday after a stressful week.

- Looking silly is part of the fun, so don't be upset if they laugh at you. It means that your friends are having fun.
