As I posted before Sweetie Heart had $40 budget. An adult friend gave her another $10 for the party. I took her to the store with her list and this is what she bought:
- M&M's
- Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
- Mini Mint Patties
- Swedish Fish
- Hershey Kisses
- Sun Chips
- Corn Chips
- Pepperoni
- Eggs
- Popsicles
- Cheese (2lbs)
- Cantelope
- Blueberries
- Cream Cheese (x2) to make frosting
Webby will be entertaining Sweet Girl and be camping out in the backyard with her. But he'll be here for backup if I need him. He was honest with me about this being mine to do with Sweetie Heart. I get it. Four 8 year olds in a house can be a lot to handle especially if you're a man who only had 1 older brother.
Any last minute advice from you seasoned parents?

No slumber party experience yet - all I can say is, go with the flow and don't think about the mess until they all go home! Have fun.
I would suggest doing a craft of some sort. Little girls love that kinda stuff (preschool experience - don't think I have girls that I haven't mentioned!) and you probably have plenty of supplies already at home! I have recipes for various play-dohs, finger paint, lip gloss, etc if you want them. You can do butterflies with clothespins and coffee filters, binoculars for spying birds with toilet paper rolls - you know, cheap, easy stuff. And they serve as party favors to take home!
I'm not seasoned, and I don't have slumber party experience yet... but I was at a birthday party with 6 five year old girls recently, and it was a stitch to watch them!
My best thought is that if it starts to feel overwhelming, take a step back and watch; I bet they'll be having a blast!
Sending great vibes for you!
So how did it go???
