Remember those carefree nights when you and your friends would gather for a slumber party, chatting about crushes and pulling pranks until dawn? It’s time to revive that spirit, but with a grown-up twist! Grab your phone, round up your closest friends, send the kids to grandma’s, and let’s reclaim the joy of adult slumber parties.
All you need is a spacious living room, some cozy sleeping arrangements—whether it’s sleeping bags or an air mattress (for those with back issues)—and of course, plenty of movies, snacks, and drinks (the adult kind!).
Here are ten engaging activities to make your slumber party unforgettable:
-
Movie Marathon
Forget about heading to the video rental store—stream your favorites on Netflix or grab a flick from Redbox. Choose genres based on your group’s vibe or take a quick vote. Classic slasher films like Halloween or A Nightmare on Elm Street can bring back those thrilling memories, or opt for a romantic favorite like Dirty Dancing or The Notebook for a different mood. -
Indulge in Comfort Food
This night is all about treating yourself! Ditch the diet and order pizza, or make your own using English muffins as the base. Don’t forget the essential movie snacks: buttery popcorn and nostalgic candies like Sour Patch Kids or Skittles. For dessert, whip up some ice cream sundaes for the ultimate sweet finish. -
Raise a Glass
Channel your younger days by mixing drinks with whatever alcohol you have on hand, just like you used to. Now that you’re of legal age, you can enjoy responsibly, but it’s all about the nostalgia, right? -
Pull Some Good-Natured Pranks
Getting creative with pranks can be a fun challenge in the age of caller ID, but don’t let that stop you! Try the classic “bra in the freezer” trick or come up with your own clever ideas. Just remember, don’t be the first to fall asleep! -
Pamper Yourselves
Even if your beauty routine has evolved, you can still enjoy some self-care. Set up a DIY spa night with facials, manicures, and hair treatments. Cucumbers over the eyes while you relax can bring back that youthful glow. -
Gossip Over Magazines
Swap out Teen Beat for Us Weekly and dive into the latest celebrity gossip. It’s fun to reminisce about crushes while flipping through glossy pages filled with your favorite stars. -
Board Game Fun
No slumber party is complete without some games! Bring out classics like “Truth or Dare,” or “Never Have I Ever” to spark laughter and maybe a few secrets. You can even try “Heartthrob” to see who your dream date would be now! -
Get Spooked
Bring out the Ouija board for some spooky fun—or try summoning “Bloody Mary” in front of the mirror for a good scare. Just remember, someone is always moving the pointer… or are they? -
Invite the Boys
If you want to spice things up, consider having some male friends join the party. It’s a different vibe than when you were teenagers, but it can be just as fun. You’ll find you’re more comfortable around them now! -
Heartfelt Conversations
Wrap up the night by sharing your dreams, secrets, and even some gripes about life. Discuss everything from anti-aging tips to the ups and downs of marriage. It’s a great way to bond and connect over how much life has changed.
