SLEEPOVER - 2 reference results
A sleepover, also known as a pajama party or a slumber party (or rarely, a snoozer), is a party where a guest or guests are invited to stay overnight. They are most frequently held by teens and may be combined with a birthday party or other special occasion. Another common type of a sleepover is a lock-in, where the participants stay at a public place.
Common activities
Typical participant activities include staying up late, talking, eating and playing until falling asleep, which sometimes never happens for a few energy-high guests. Sleepovers are usually held at one participant's house, with other guests sometimes bringing their bedtime things, such as pillows or sleeping bags. Common activities include playing board games or video games, having pillow fights, watching movies, ordering pizza, eating sweets, playing party games such as Truth or Dare and light as a feather, stiff as a board, building forts out of pillows and blankets, or, for girls, having a "spa night", in which girls polish their nails and toes and put on face masques. Sleepovers are practiced by both girls and boys, but more commonly by girls. Sometimes, sleepovers can have a theme, like dressing up as a favourite book character or a Christmas or halloween sleepover.
