Do you remember the excitement of sleepovers as a child? Is hosting a mermaid sleepover currently on your list of to-dos? Why not pack the evening hours with a slumber party full of all things mermaid? You don’t even need a specific reason to shellebrate—as long as you’re prepared!
Invitations

Setting Up
One of the most important things to think about when planning for your mermaid sleepover is where you want to sleep: for example, are you going to stay cozy inside or venture out under the stars? Also, do you want to pull out all the stops for the ultimate glamping experience, or keep it classic with pillow fights and sleeping bags? Whatever you decide, make sure you have enough space for the number of friends you’ve invited!
Dinner and Snacks
As mealtime approaches, keep in mind that food doesn’t have to be fancy! While there are plenty of mermaid party food ideas out there, any kind of snack can become a mermaid morsel with fishy-themed labels!
Nevertheless, if you’re seeking a sea-inspired treat to sink your sweet tooth into, these mermaid tail marshmallows are both adorable and delicious!

It may be a while until everyone is awake after an epic night of sleepover shenanigans! Even if those present aren’t morning mermaids, you can make a splash with a themed breakfast like mermaid pancakes to get them up and swimming in no time!
