American girl doll ideas?

Question

I'm planning my little sister's slumber party and its based on american girl dolls. i dont want to buy the prepackaged party kits because its expensive. what are some crafts/activites we can do? and were kind of on a budget. and since i have to take care of 4-5 little girls all night, something easy would be great. my friend might be coming ot help but yeah she might not. we already have american girl doll spa planned. we might also make jewelry.

all your ideas are welcome. and we are going to have lots of time because they are coming at around 2 p.m. so list as many ideas you can think of. websites on how to make some things would be great also.

Answer 1

I think the jewelry is a great idea since it's not as messy as some other crafts, especially if you have the spa activity and food, cake and presents to deal with also.

The girls could make a necklace for themselves, and one for their doll.

You can go to the craft store and buy large bags of assorted beads and something to string them on.

Make sure the string will fit easily through the beads.

You can put a variety of beads into a small container for each girl. Something like a little tin bucket that you could take a paint pen and personalize by writing each girl's name on the bucket, or use letter stickers.

You could also buy alphabet beads and each girl could make a bracelet spelling out their doll's name.

Have fun!

Answer 2

I love American girl dolls myself! You can have an American girl doll hair styling contest! At The American girl doll place they have a book about how to style your AG doll's hair! Or you could get at any local retailers that sell books! They also have a book set on how you could make your own AG doll clothes! I hope your little sister has a good party!
