Once upon a time, not so far away, there was a magical Ideas page that was believed to have the best party tips in all the land! This isn’t a fairy tale story idea, this is a real one, no cap! A party bash idea that’s suitable for people of all ages! Are you ready to know what it is? Suspenseful music… ‘sleep under’ parties!

What exactly are sleep under parties, you ask? Well, they’re cozy gatherings that combine the fun and games of a sleepover without the actual sleeping over. So, whether it’s for your child who’s craving a slumber party, or your friend who needs a night-in full of laughs and nostalgia, a sleep under party is the ultimate party adventure!

So, dust off your pillows, grab your popcorn, and start organizing a sleep under with the help of us, the Zamazing Zazzle Ideas team!

Kids’ Sleep Under Parties

From birthday parties to playdates, these casual gatherings are perfect for keeping the kids entertained while you sit back and relax. Why hadn’t we thought of this sooner? After years of booking function rooms, renting bounce houses, and watching kids chase their favorite characters for attention, it’s time to simplify! Now, we can strip it all back and settle them into cozy sleeping bags or pop-up tents for a calm, wholesome party experience. Just imagine them lounging in their pajamas, watching a movie or series, playing fun games, and enjoying snacks – a party organizer’s dream! All you need now is a checklist, and we’ve got everything covered below:

Party Supplies/Decorations

  • Invitations – (Print and Download options)
  • Tents – (If you don’t have any around the house, there are teepees you can hire online)
  • Sleeping bags/blankets
  • Pillows
  • Paper cups and plates
  • Blankets
  • Matching pajamas/custom t-shirts and pajamas pants
  • Projector to show movies/series

Snack Ideas

  • Nachos
  • S’mores
  • Kid-friendly charcuterie board – (chicken nuggets and fries on a chopping board – job done!)
  • Party bags – Fill them with mini candy bars, sweet treats, chips, everyone gets a bag so there’s no fights about sharing.
  • Pizza 
  • Make your own burrito/wrap/burger – Get family packs of meat and sandwich fillers and make an activity out of it. This is a great way to fill them and appease fussy eaters.

Game Ideas

It’s game time! While traditional slumber parties might include scary movies, pranks, and spooky stories, it’s daylight outside, so let’s avoid scaring the little munchkins before bedtime. Instead, we’ve come up with a few relaxing board and online games that focus less on running around and more on brain power and laughs.

Movie or TV Series Ideas

With so many streaming services available these days, it can feel like there’s almost too much choice, making it impossible to agree on just one movie or series. To make things easier, we’ve listed a few of our Zamazing brand partners. They offer crowd-favorite shows and movies, along with official merchandise you can pick up to elevate your next party.

Adult Sleep Under Parties

If you can’t beat them, you might as well join them! While the kids are busy playing, why not have a little fun yourself? Not only is it a great excuse to meet the other kid’s parents, but it’s also the perfect way to make new pals of your own. And hey, maybe you just want a low-key hangout with your crew, where no one has to dress up, and you can celebrate recent wins or birthdays without ever leaving the house. A cozy get-together where everyone’s home by 9? That’s every introvert’s dream party! All you need are a few essentials, and we’ve got them listed below.

Party Supplies

Party Themes

Let’s be real, we all come for the food! But, when there’s a theme involved, it’s like adding sprinkles to an already delicious cupcake – it makes everything more exciting! A party theme ties the whole party together, gets guests imagining picture-perfect moments, and adds a touch of extra fun. If you’re a sucker for themed parties, you’re going to love these ideas:

  • 90’s nostalgia – Just picture classic movies, cozy pjs and word games, just like the old days!
  • Afternoon tea – Does someone have some tea to spill?
  • Retro 70’s – Cocktails, karaoke, disco costumes, and more!
  • Seasonal party – Any excuse to have a shindig over the holidays!
  • Backyard bonfire – Do you have any tents to turn your own backyard into a glamping station?

Food and Drink Ideas

  • Bring your own platter – Whether it’s a color scheme that you agreed on as a group, or a favorite food type thing, everyone ends up happy as you’ll be bringing what you like to that table!
  • Mocktail station – Set up a few glasses with alcohol-free drinks, mixers and lemonade. You can have a BYOB for anyone that wants to bring something else.
  • Bits and dip – What we mean here is any snack that’s dippable – tortilla chips, nuggets, bread sticks, crackers, etc. and has a selection of dips, homouses and sauces to meet everyone’s dietary needs. 
  • Breakfast for Dinner – Have each guest bring their favorite breakfast or brunch dish.

Entertainment Ideas

This is where the nostalgia kicks in as you start thinking of things to do at a sleepover – what did you used to do, or what do you wish you had done as a kid? Now, with adult sleepover ideas, you can relive all the fun but with a grown-up twist. The best part? You get to plan the day, keep the party flowing, and actually decide when it’s time to wind things down. It’s all the sleepover fun minus the bedtime, and full of laughs from morning till evening!

  • D.I.Y spa or craft station – Set up face masks, mani-pedis, and cucumber eye patches for a relaxing pamper session. On the creative side of things you could partake in candle making, sculpture painting, or make friendship bracelets.
  • Classic movie marathon – Revisit the movies you loved as a kid or pick a favorite theme (rom-coms, ’90s classics, etc.).
  • Board game battle – Go old school with games like Monopoly, Scrabble, or Topple Tower to keep everyone laughing.
  • Karaoke time – Belt out your favorite throwback tunes with a portable karaoke machine or YouTube karaoke videos.
  • Indoor fort building – Channel your inner child and build blanket forts for the ultimate cozy hangout spot. You could even call it indoor glamping! 
  • Photo booth fun – Set up a mini photo booth with props and the backdrop you decided on above to capture fun moments throughout the night.
