Makeover Stations

Ask a few older girls or mothers to help you out with some of the stations. Have one for hair, nails, makeup and accessories. Let the girls wander around and do the stations they want. Take Polaroid’s of the girls when they are done with their makeovers so they can take them home with them.

Have finger foods for the girls to eat after their makeovers.
