Updated: Jan 22



There’s nothing quite like a night of fun, laughter, and bonding with your favourite little ones. Whether you’re planning a cosy evening for a small group of kids or a themed sleepover, Slumber Squad is all about creating memories that last a lifetime. Here are some tips to ensure your next children's sleepover is an absolute hit!

1. Pick a Theme and Run with It

Themes add excitement and a sense of togetherness to any sleepover. Here are a few ideas to inspire your squad:


  • Princess Pyjama Party: Bring out tiaras, sparkly decorations, and royal bedtime stories.

  • Superhero Night: Create capes, play superhero games, and watch age-appropriate superhero movies.

  • Camp-In: Set up an indoor "campfire" with fairy lights, tell stories, and make s'mores.

Decorate your space to match the theme, and encourage the kids to dress up accordingly. The effort will be worth the unforgettable moments you’ll create!

2. Plan Activities Everyone Will Love

Keep the little ones entertained with these fun ideas:

  • Craft Time: Make friendship bracelets, decorate pillowcases, or create fun masks.

  • Storytelling Corner: Read bedtime stories or let the kids take turns telling their own.

  • Movie Night: Choose animated classics or fun family-friendly flicks.

  • Games: Play simple games like "Simon Says," hide-and-seek, or a scavenger hunt.

3. Don’t Forget the Snacks!

Kid-friendly snacks are a must! Check with parents for any allergies and then Get creative:

  • Create a DIY snack bar with popcorn, gummies, and sprinkles.

  • Bake cookies or cupcakes together as a fun (and tasty) group activity.

  • Offer easy savoury options like mini pizzas, cheese sticks, or fruit skewers.

  • Whip up fun drinks like fruity punch or hot chocolate with colourful marshmallows.

4. Capture the Moments

Set up a photo booth with props that match your theme, or simply take candid shots of the kids having fun. Use instant cameras for tangible keepsakes or create a digital folder to share with parents and to save the memories.

6. Wind Down with a Relaxing Finale

After all the excitement, help the kids wind down:

  • Try a group Storytime with calming books.

  • Play soothing soft music to help them relax.

  • Encourage quiet activities like drawing or colouring before bedtime.

7. Make It Personal

The best part of any Slumber Squad gathering is the personal touches. Send the kids home with small party favours like mini stuffed animals, custom bookmarks, or craft items they made during the sleepover.
