Hello,
Wintermute here bringing you your daily does of Dumbr. Tonight we talk about every child’s dream, a slumber party at school with friends. The best part about throwing a pajama party for your students is it forces your employer to pay you over-time. ;)
First you will have to decide what your students will be doing; this event will be set up much like the Fair we discussed earlier. Each Class will be a different stage for the kids to venture to. However this time around the kids won’t be involved in the planning process, they are there to have some fun. Here are some ideas:
1. Bowling: Get some 2 liter bottles, fill them up a quarter of the way with water (not all the way or they won’t fall), tip the desk to make a lane and have the kids play.
2. Team Games: play some games with all of the classes to promote team work, such as passing a ball behind you first over then under then over until the end of the line.
3. Team Contest: Make a team with each individual Class, have the team come up with a name and then have them design a banner, and last make a team cheer. All the classes will go to the gym and present their banner and cheer. I’m not too hip on this one, but the kids love it.
4. Anything really, just make sure it’s fun.
Pick a Friday to have all of your students return to the school around 6:30. Tell your kids to wear pajamas and bring sleeping bags. When they arrive have them drop their stuff off. Let them play the games for however long, after a while though serve them some dinner. Something easy like fried chicken, because who doesn’t like fried chicken?
Then have them get their sleeping bags and head to the gym, turn down the lights nice a dim, get a female teacher and have her read them a story. Hopefully they will all fall asleep. None will however, but rest assured the parents are well on their way and ready to pick their sugar high kids up.
Have fun, enjoy yourself, and stay Dumbr. Be sure to comment and ask questions. Tomorrow, Story Book!

Oh man! I always wanted to do this, but my teachers never bothered to arrange this, I actually think they werent allowed...
ReplyDeleteyeah I would have loved a pajama party at school back when I was a kid, but I think it was impossible for safety/insurance reasons
ReplyDeleteI think we had a Pajama part once in school.. a long time ago though
ReplyDeleteAnother great idea. How is this a DAILY blog??
ReplyDeleteMy school was boring and no fun. ):
ReplyDeleteoppa, i'm hungry. feed me!
My school hosted some kind of sleep in at the school, the only thing you did was like watch a movie and sleep over night in the gym. I didnt go.
ReplyDelete@clint, that is a very good question.
and agassi chingu, alright, I'm about to make me lunch, today is fajitas!

ReplyDeletelol, I never had such a party, but you are never too old, right?
ReplyDeleteumm yeah hype, I think there is an age limit on the pajama party, sorry.
ReplyDeleteOr you could just get a football and play inside the classroom ;D
ReplyDeleteIn my school we were playing backgammon in the class, but it was during lesson time :P

ReplyDeleteDid anybody really like that hot for teacher song?
ReplyDeleteThe one by Van Halen? Such a good song.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoyed these theme days when I was in school.
We had movie night in elementary school. A lot of the other kids dressed in PJs for some reason and the cool kids would play spin the soda can while the lights were dimmed during the movie. We might have 5th Grader mommies if it was a slumber party.
ReplyDeleteYou got a lot of nice ideas, this sounds really fun! I don't like the idea of the Fan contest either but what matters is that the kids like it. Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeletewhen I was younger, I would have absolutely loved this. Great ideas!
