[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do a hotel sleepover (a suite w/kitchen and separate bedroom/living room) with a pool.  We did swimming and a spa night with chocolate facials and orbi pedicures. Had a fantastic time. [/quote]

Maybe you missed the single mom not wanting to spend a lot part..[/quote]

No I didn't miss it, but appreciate your attempt to snark at me. Why would you think this is expensive and cost prohibitive? This was cheaper than hosting a party at a facility and has a bigger wow factor. You can get a Marriott suite room for maybe 130, bring your own food and put together your spa stuff (amazon and dollar tree) and then add in a bonus of a heated pool. It was by far my cheapest party with the biggest positive response for how it turned out. [/quote]

10 yr olds alone in a room at night?? Parents dropping them off for 12-18 hrs? Wow[/quote]

Why would you assume the host's parents wouldn't stay with the kids?

OP, if she doesn't have many friends (my 11yo is like this) I would do an activity like pottery painting or movie in the theatre or the like, and then out to dinner. Kind of like a "yes" day that she gets to share with 1-2 friends rather than a full on party. My DD was about that age when she started wanting experiences over parties. The pizza and slumber party sounds fun too, if that's what your DD would go for (mine was not into that type of thing).[/quote]
