The TickleMe Plant Party Favor was a huge hit at our last Party. In it you can grow a pet like plant that closes its leaves like crazy when Tickled. Tickle it some more and the branches fall down,
Seeing is believing.. http://www.ticklemeplant.com We had a garden theme and planted the seeds in party favor and painted the little pots as we learned about the TickleMe Plant. It was educational and pure fun.

I'm turning eleven and a good idea is inviting a bunch of people over and everyone picks a partner gets a list of items for a scavenger hunt were you go to the neighbors and see if they have the item

Hi my girls at that age wanted to have all their friends over to home for a party and then watch movies and sleep over some were allowed to come to the party but were not allowed to sleep over which was fine they watched a couple of movies and left but be warned they don't go to sleep until the wee hours of the morning :) but had a lot of fun, then had pancakes for breakfast.

why not a masquerade party have everyone dress up and wearing a mask that might sound a little

more grown but it is a good idea

The American Girl theme also has some great activities that my 10 yr old loves. The Paper Posies activity is one that even I loved playing with.

Well,apparently 1 of my daughters best friends

HATES cake.so...I was wondering...

PLUS my daughter isn't the girly type.

She'd prefer more Tom boy stuff.

PLUS we live by a church! Infact, my husband

is the pastor at the church!so..why not have the party there?

Then do a scavenger hunt, create a desert with the group!

We could also play a sport in the church gym!

Also we're inviting 11 people because she is turning 11!

My daughter also turns 11 this weekend... and bowling party for us as well! :D Although getting to the bowling idea was quite difficult. We searched for months filtering different 11 year old birthday party ideas for girls... from spa to hawaiian luau to skating etc. My older daughter is turning 13 in April and her first party with boys. She had decided to do a 70's disco party. Everyone will dress up in 70's attire and we will mix in 70's music along with today's current hits, for an activity my daughter wants to make disco balls for everyone to take home. Then after the boys go home the girls are all sleeping over. We have Abba Sing Star and will be watching Staying Alive. :D Good Luck and remember to just have fun!

I was just going to ask kinda the same thing about 11 year old birthday party ideas for girls. Glory and Sandy gave me a couple of good ideas. my daughter's party is this weekend n I still wasn't sure what they were going to actually do...but like Sandy said "just let them hang out" ... with a few ideas of course is good. I got the main idea from my sisters...which is to have it at a hotel. Though they can't swim cause the place doesn't have an indoor pool. they can do the dancing/karaoke thing, let the do each others nails hair n make up, buy some pizza, watch movies n eat popcorn, n of course CAKE!! I think they will have a great time! U should do it too...^_^//





sorry...forgot to add. my daughter will be turning 11.

and I am in ♥ with priceline.com I got a $85 (per night not including taxes etc) 4 star hotel for that night for $57 incl. taxes n everything.

My 11 year old's birthday party is for both Girls and Boys, we did the spa party last year because we only invited girls. We were thinking of a mystery party, Clue has a new "Murder Mystery" series of games we were thinking of picking up. Not sure what other things to add to the theme though.

I'd be careful with Grease. I hadn't seen it in a very long time and thought "Oh, my girls will love it - it's just like High School Musical." But there's stuff in there that I had forgotten about. Teen pregnancy, sneaking out from a sleep over, spiking the punch at a school dance, the slutty behavior of Rizzo, slutting yourself up to get a guy...to name a few! When Rizzo was singing "There are worse things I could do" (or something like that), my daughter kept asking me "Why don't those girls like her." It just made me a little uncomfortable.

The biggest thing out is New Moon!!!! Also what I notice is pretty big is a Spa....girls love that stuff....I've done a spa for my daughter...never did it at a place, but You and maybe a friend of yours can do pedicures on the girls, manicure, even hair..make party bags with little body gels, lip gloss, miniature soaps, hair clips...ect...all those nice things that us girls love...when you send out invitations, make sure you are clear with the moms, about the girls spa/makeover...pajama party is really good....they love it...serve pizza,,,,follow by their spa,,,,buy champane glasses and serve them gingerale a drop of food coloring and put a cherry inside, while they are waitng for their turn...once they are done make some popcorn and watch a girly movie,,,Mama Mia, New Moon, The Note Book, Greese Part (one), Also let the mothers know what movie you have chosen...Have the parents come pick up the girls first thing in the morning....She'll love it!!! Happy birthday..girly

For my younger daughter, we did a Karaoke party one year. It was a hit! I bought poster board and cut them into mini signs and put out a bunch of markers. That way, the kids who aren't comfortable doing karaoke can make signs for the singers (for instance, "You're the next American Idol!). That kept them occupied for a while. I also made them all cds with all of the current popular songs and let them decorate the cd cases as an activity.



For my 11 year old girl's birthday party, I took her and 3-4 friends to the mall, gave them each a little cash and let them walk around by themselves (in a specified area and they weren't allowed to separate). They thought this was great and I was at the mall, just not following them around. We got our nails done, went to a movie and then went home for a sleepover. If you don't want to pay for the movie and nails, you could do make-overs at the house and do mani/pedi's for the girls. Are there going to be boys there? That part confused me a little...



I've found that girls this age mostly want to shop and just hang out, as opposed to having everything planned. Hope this helps with 11 year old birthday party ideas for girls!
