Sleepover ideas for hard to please 10 y/o

[fairfatandfrumpy]

We have never hosted a sleepover for this dc
The child who is coming has been to the house lots and is a seasoned sleepover child (my dc less so, often wakes in night and wants me or dh so have not had a sleepover for them before)

Child who is coming is very worldly and quite tricky to please

I am thinking
board game
Fun Dinner
Movie and snacks

Teeth
Bed

Am I missing something?
Thanks

Make up on each other /make overs?
Coloring competition.
Baking
Movie
For dinner make own pizzas

How old are they? If they are a bit older, I would leave them to hang out or do what they want. Do you mean you'll all play the game, all have dinner, all watch the movie together?

I leave mine to it. Provide the food and drinks, that's it.

Also, getting them to clean their teeth and go to bed might not be as easy as it sounds. They will probably mess around in bed for ages. I guess lots of this depends on their age.

Helpful tips
Hard to fully leave them to it, they have siblings and we live open plan downstairs

Wondering Whether an escape room in a box type thing may be better than a game

Does you child have their own room? If not, have their sibling in with you for the night. Let the guest and host have a room to themselves and leave them to it. They’re old enough to decide what to do!

The thrill of sleepovers is they are on their own having fun. No sibs or 'rents- it will go down like a lead balloon.

Let them have a room, sort food, treats access to movie etc and let them be. Otherwise it may be reported back by more worldly child how "uncool" it was. Kids are harsh critics🤣

Sorry, I've just seen they are 10. Escape room games sound good, but again, I wouldn't try to force it too much. At 10 they can easily entertain themselves in the bedroom. I wouldn't try to structure the eveing too much to be honest. I have an 11 and nearly 10 year old. The last thing they want when their friends are over is me fussing them.

My 11 year old had friends over one Friday evening. I only spoke to them when asking what food they wanted from the BBQ and offered them a drink, but apparently, that was embarrassing enough. And I wouldn't possibly understand why 🙄

Do they have their own bedroom? When ds was younger and had sleepovers they spent all their time in his room or the garden (without anyone else) and with Dd we've a bigger house so gave them run of the kitchen / living room / diving room whilst we stayed out the way.

Ds usually was computer games / football / all of the food / movie

Dd usually trip to shops on own (luckily live near enough they can walk) for snacks / simple baking and then make up or hair stuff and movie and bed.

do not over involve yourself

*dining room. The house isn't that much bigger unfortunately.
