Mom, let’s face it…it can be REALLY tough picking a party theme for your daughter when she’s in the “tween” phase. What is that phase exactly? It’s when girls (and boys) are in the “in-between” stage of around 10 – 13 years old. They’re not little kids anymore, but they’re also not teenagers yet so unicorns and rainbows won’t cut it just as a full-on disco may not be on the cards for her yet.
A slumber party is always a winner for girls of all ages, and we’ve selected two of the best slumber party themes for tween girls. Read our ideas below!
Lights, camera, glamour!
There are so many directions a glitz and glam theme party can go, depending on your daughter’s specific interests. If she reads celebrity news more than her English set book, then Glitz and Glam could translate to a night at the Oscars or a red carpet experience! Hire some red carpet worthy dresses and allow the girls to dress up to the nines and strut their stuff down the carpet. You could go so far as to hire some lights and a photographer to make it a really authentic glitz and glam experience!
You could also take the route of a fashion show party, where you set up a runway complete with lights, put on the latest tunes and have all the guests hit the catwalk in their trendiest ensembles! Again, you could hire cool props like hats, umbrellas and bags for the girls to play around with on the runway.
In our previous post, we also talked about a make-up application avenue related to this theme where you could call in a pro make-up artist to teach the girls how to apply basic make-up as they move towards adolescence.
Regardless of which Glitz and Glam direction you choose to go in, our themed party invitation is perfect for your tween girl! All the text is fully editable so you can pop in whatever details you need to. And let’s not forget about the glittery accents – any glam girls dream!
This one’s a hoot!
Once kids hit the tween stage, it’s unlikely slumber party bedtime is anywhere before midnight. With boundless energy, they become somewhat nocturnal – much like a night owl! So what better theme to match their sleeping patterns than a night owl theme slumber party?
This theme is great for laid-back girls who don’t want any fuss – just a night of fun, treats and laughs with their besties. Our cute night owl slumber party invitations are perfect for setting the mood. And the best part is, all the text is also fully editable so you can customize the information to suit your needs.
