Each keeps kids engaged in one spot. ### What if it rains on our outdoor party day? Most Slumberr activities move indoors easily, so a rainy forecast usually just means setting up inside instead of in the yard. ### How much indoor space do I need? It depends on the activity and group size. A living room or playroom is enough for most crafts, while a sleepover needs floor space for the teepees. ### What does Slumberr provide? Depending on the package, Slumberr may provide the setup, smocks, [tables and chairs](https://slumberr.com/table-chair-rentals/), activity supplies, and a host. ## Keep Planning [Slime Parties](https://slumberr.com/slime-party/)[Painting Parties](https://slumberr.com/painting-party/)[Spa Parties](https://slumberr.com/spa-party/)[Sleepover Rentals](https://slumberr.com/sleepover-rentals/)[Movie Nights](https://slumberr.com/outdoor-movie-night/)[All Guides](https://slumberr.com/blogs/) ## Rain or Shine, Plan an Indoor Party Tell Slumberr your date, location, and guest count, and we will bring a cozy, hands on party that works indoors.
