Sit down with your child and brainstorm sleepover ideas together—after all, she’s as much the hostess as you are. Even in our high tech world, these little gatherings haven’t changed too much since your day. You need plenty of games and activities to keep everyone busy and having fun so they don’t have too much time to start making mischief. Depending on the age, they may prefer some mom-free time. And no slumber party is complete without great snacks. This is one time that it’s probably okay to allow a little junk food in the name of tradition.
