The Tepee Tribe
“We’re here to take your child’s sleepover to a whole new level,” says The Tepee Tribe’s RACHEL ALI. “From delivery and setup to stylish décor, we’ll transform your home space into a truly magical sleepover wonderland.”
Indeed, all you have to worry about as the party host is choosing one of the many cool themes available, from Space Explorer and Tropical Flamingo, to Dinosaur Dreams and Secret Garden – there’s even a tribute to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour! The Tepee Tribe team will handle the rest.
“And don’t worry about the cleanup either,” adds Rachel. “We’ll be there to pack everything up, making it a stress-free experience for busy parents. We want our customers to enjoy a fun-filled happy experience that celebrates the wonder of childhood and sparks the imagination of young minds in a stress-free environment in the comfort of your own home.”
Hear from a happy client
CHRISTINA CORREA has booked The Tepee Tribe on numerous occasions.
“The Tepee Tribe was a recommendation from my friend and neighbour, Karola. I followed up with the website and Instagram accounts, and the team helped me to make a booking.
I’ve used them for a few parties; the first one was mixed gender, so we did a mixture of Football and Boho themes. My kids picked the themes themselves; they were drawn in by all the details – things like the trophies and tray tables, the decorative pillows, the bunting, the dreamcatchers and the fairy lights. The tepees give a special look and feel to a slumber party – it really helps get the party theme up front and centre. The kids loved seeing the setup and it got them excited for the upcoming party.
It’s extremely easy to book, too; the options and packages are clear and straightforward on the website. The customer service is super helpful – the team always respond quickly to my needs and are a pleasure to deal with; they’re organised and clear about what to expect beforehand in terms of timings and any other details, and they take care of all the setup before the party and the take down afterwards. And, of course, my kids love the slumber parties! I would definitely recommend The Tepee Tribe to other parents – it makes everything so easy.”
Sleepover ideas from The Tepee Tribe for a fun event or kids birthday party
#1 Curate the guest list
Less is more! Invite a small group of familiar friends instead of the entire class for a more enjoyable experience. Invite children you know to create a sense of security and ease.
#2 Check your space
Ensure you have enough room for everyone to sleep and play comfortably.
#3 Consider sleepover comfort
Be mindful that not all kids are used to sleepovers. A smaller group can help ease any anxiety. A Tepee Tribe party is a fun way for each child to have their own mini space to retreat into as every child gets their own tent.
#4 Plan for memorable fun
Consider a themed dress-up or pyjama party, serve fun food, and have a movie ready to make the night special. Keep it simple to minimise stress for parents while ensuring a great experience for the kids.
