Planning a sleepover in Austin? Whether you’re hosting or sending your kid to one, having the right accessories can take the night from “cool” to completely legendary. Sure, the tents and twinkle lights set the scene (South Austin Sleepover Tents has you covered there 😉), but it’s those little extras that really make the memories.
Here are the top 5 sleepover accessories to make any sleepover a night to remember.
🎨 1. A Fun Craft or DIY Kit
Why kids love it: It keeps hands busy and sparks creativity—plus, they get something cool to take home.
Top picks:
Friendship bracelet kits
Mini paint party sets
Bead art or DIY keychains
💡 Hosting tip: At South Austin Sleepover Tents, we offer add-ons like paint party favors and bracelet bead kits, so everything is ready to go—no prep needed!
👯♀️ 2. Cozy Sleepover Gear
Why kids love it: It’s all about the vibe. Think spa night, movie marathon, or glam squad.
Top Picks:
Fuzzy socks or slippers
Cute eye masks
Spa Kits
Mini robes or headbands for a spa theme
🕹️3. Classic Sleepover Games
Why kids love it: Games = bonding. They’re perfect icebreakers if not everyone knows each other.
Kid-approved options:
Would You Rather
Charades or Heads Up
Truth or Dare (the nice version!)
Sleepover Bingo (you can create custom boards!)
💡 Hosting idea: Print game cards and tuck them into each tent as a surprise activity.
🐾 4. Plush Friends or Pillow Cases
Why kids love it: Whether they bring their favorite stuffed animal or get a new themed plush on their bed, it adds a comforting, personal touch. Personalized pillow cases give each guest a special favor to take home.
Cute idea: Pick a plush or pillow case to match the theme (think pink flamingos for Beverly Hills Dreams or various sports for our Game Day theme)
💡 Hosting idea: Consider a pillow case the guests could decorate so it could also be an activity during the sleepover.
📸 5. A Disposable or Instant Camera
Why kids love it: Snapping silly photos or capturing the “tent reveal” moment feels extra special when they have their own camera.
Bonus: Photos make a great party favor and memory they can keep.
💡 Hosting tip: Set up a simple “photo booth” corner in the sleepover area with props—so easy and fun!
