Looking for slumber party ideas? Just putting this fabulous kids' spa party theme together has got me longing for a day at the spa! A spa party theme would be perfect for any girlie-girl's birthday party theme ranging from age 7 to well, adult! What little lady (or grown woman for that matter) doesn't love some good pampering?
Choose a group of girls to invite, keeping it to under 10 girls will make the spa treatments run a bit more smoothly. Decide if your spa party will be an overnight slumber party or a simple "day at the spa."
Here are two darling invites: 'Painted Toes' invite and 'Spa Girls' invite. Or, if you want to make them yourself, these spa mask invites from Martha Stewart are adorable too
. Ask girls to bring their favorite bath robe for a true "luxury" feel. When they arrive, have them put on their robes and welcome them to the spa.
A great party spa treat would be to get each girl a pair of spa slippers. They'll love that they all match and the slippers will also serve as a fabulous party favor. Here's a cute spa slippers kit that they can actually make. So it's a bonus activity too!
Let the pampering begin with pedicures! Place chairs in a circle and grab some paint trays from you local home store to serve as water basins. Fill with warm water tossing in bath fizzies and a few rose petals for that extra touch. Consider recruiting Grandma, Auntie, or a friend to help you with your spa duties. Let each girl pick their polish color and get to work!
After the pedis, give each girl a facial scrub. I like this home facial scrub recipe which you can premake and store in small canning jars. You can slo try chocolate facial which I am sure the girls will be eager to lick off if it should drip!
Chocolate Facial Mask
⅓ Cup Cocoa Powder
3 Tablespoons Heavy Cream
2 teaspoons Cottage Cheese
¼ Cup Honey
3 teaspoons Oatmeal
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together using a small blender then smooth onto face. Relax for ten 10 minutes, then wash off with warm water. Enjoy baby soft skin!
Wouldn't these make the cutest dessert? I spotted these face mask shaped cookies and thought they were perfect! You could even personalize them with the spa guests names! For beverages, serve up yummy fruit smoothies and for eats how about small sandwiches?
Make each girl a spa pampering toiletry bag that she can use during her spa visit and also take home as a party favor. Include mini sized items like a nail file, nail polish, lip gloss, and scented lotion.
Now you have your spa party inspiration-- add your own details and enjoy a little girl time during a spa party!

spadiva says

Your Hostess says
HI there, I don't have a recipe but I would say just make a cookie "cutter" template out of cardstock/paper and then trace it (with a knife) on rolled out dough to create the ask shape. Then, use the end of a wooden spoon to make the holes on each end. Once baked, thread the ribbon through the holes and ice how you'd like. Hope that helps a bit!
SpaDiva says

I would LOVE to help you ladies out with what you could use for the spa products!!! Lemongrass Spa Products has incredible products that are natural and safe and work great!!!!
A foot soak is a great start!!! And our body polish is amazing for a little hand makeover before the nail polish goes on. We have an adorable kit called a Slumber Parties Kit that has everything you'd need to pampering 3-4 girls, or the Across the Miles Kit is also great and contains more products!!!

Hello!
I am trying to do something special for my god-daughter, who is about to turn 3years old in a couple of months. She is such a girlie, girlie and I know that she would enjoy something fun like this. Are you located in Washington, DC, Maryland or Virginia? If not do you know a little girl's spa that is located in these areas? I would appreciate an assistance that you can offer me.
Happy New Year

Tracy says
I love these ideas! I'm working on a spa party for about 11 girls for my daughter's 7th birthday. Three days to go till party day! I've ordered robes, fli-flops, mani/pedi sets, spa bags, etc., but am a little concerned about how to have them do the activities in a fun, but organized manner. Any suggestions????

Who doesn't love a day at the spa?! Every year for my birthday, my girlfriends and I spend the day at one of our many spas in town (Scottsdale). It's a fabulous tradition! However, I have often thought it would be fun to have an at-home spa party! Great ideas! Love those cookies!

Hey everyone,
I saw the article about birthdays and since it is my best friends 21st birthday coming up I wanted to add a quick comment. I really like the spa day party idea, and as you said it is great for any ages! Well done for coming up with such a great plan. Birthdays are great! For my close friends I always organise a little gathering for drinkies in the evening, or a nice meal out! I try and go that little mile for my friends! As part of their day of surprises, I tend to send my friends a little electronic Happy Birthday greeting in my lunch break! I have done my research and tried loads of different sites, and have finally found the perfect Free Birthday e-Card site. This particular site has an awesome application where you can upload a photograph of yourself and incorporate it into your card. This is such a clever idea, and adds that personal touch, and as I already mentioned this particular site is totally free. I think e-Cards are definitely worth a try, they are not for everyone, but I am becoming a fan! Just wanted to share my findings with you all.

Sounds like a challenge, Kat! Perhaps mud baths? I'll put my thinking cap on for you :).
