For my daughter's ninth birthday we had a spa getaway. The 6 girls gathered in the evening for a spa retreat & sleepover. We used the playroom & made sure no boys interrupted! We set up a simple nail station & extra comfy chairs for them to recline in while they pampered, giggled & gossiped. The girls gave each other manicures first. We had another Mom there to help me aid the girls with their "treatments". While their nails were drying, we did foot soaks. After that, the girls did each others hair. We had each girl mix her own bath salts and color a personalized pillowcase, which all of them signed for take home keepsakes. The goodie bags were filled with fun spa delights like bubble bath & sponge, lip gloss, lotion & a small nail polish. They had the pillowcase & bath salts too. After they were done with their pampering, they ate ice cream cake, opened presents & watched movies. They had a great time being silly with the girls! What a huge success. We all had a great time & my daughter REALLY enjoyed her birthday. I loved being able to spend the quality time of doing a party at home & getting to know my daughters friends a lot better.
