Party idea: Spa Night

For a recent teen activity, we had a "pamping"/camping night. The guys went camping and the girls were pampered. The girls had a blast and this is something that little girls up to "big" girls LOVE. We do it differently every year but the girls always enjoy it. We were blessed to have two massage therapists donate their night and gave the girls their first real massages

The girls were all put in different groups and were able to rotate between 4 stations. At one station they were given facial mask and cucumbers for their eyes. While they were at this station. They also rotated on the massage table and got hot stones and a neck and back massage.

While that was going on, another group was getting their toe nails and finger nails painted at our painting station. Another group then bathed their feet in the foot baths and dipped their feet in paraffin wax. After it dried, they received a foot massage.

Lastly, the girls got their hands dipped in the paraffin wax and received a hand massage, then another back, neck and arm massage on a massage chair.
They were spoiled. In fact, if they had gone to any spa, they would have spent hundreds of $$$$. They all really enjoyed it and it was a blessing to see them bond together.
You may not be able to bring in a massage therapist.  What we did last year was this:  we sat everyone down in a big long train and everyone gave the person in front of them a neck and back massage. 
There are a lot of different ideas, but all in all, girls love to be pampered and it's a great way to show the girls how much you care.  Jesus washed the disciples' feet. We too can learn to show our love  by getting down and giving a foot massage or painting a nail or two. Hope this gave you some ideas.
