Top Ideas to Celebrate Black History Month in 2023

Sleepover Party Shop is a Black Woman owned company that creates dream teepee parties for kids, teens and adults. We love the opportunity to highlight African American culture and other Black owned businesses. This February, during Black History Month, we are sharing top ideas to celebrate in style with a 🎉 Party for the Culture 🎉.

Get ready to be inspired with our recommendations.

Glory Theme Parties

Perfect for groups of friends, siblings or organizations such as Girl Scouts, Jack and Jill, Mocha Moms etc. Come together for a night of Black Girl Magic and Black Boy Joy.

Reserve your designer, personalized teepee in the beautiful colors of purple and gold with crown pillows and inspiring words in African print.

Leaf through the coffee table book Glory: Magical Visions of Black Beauty  by photographers Kahran and Regis Bethencourt and The Me I Choose To Be by Natasha Anastasia Tarpley with art by photographers Kahran and Regis Bethencourt.

Glory parties are designed to inspire, honor, and embrace the beauty of Black heritage and culture.

Upon special requests by several parents and young Black Boys, we customized the Glory theme for boys as well. Needless to say, it was a memorable and invigorating experience for the young Black Kings. 

Costume Party

Take your Black History celebration up a notch by helping kids dress up in colorful clothing inspired by African American heritage. Each outfit and pattern has a story to tell and this can be a wonderful opportunity for young Black kids to recollect important aspects of Black History. Dressing up for a themed sleepover party is always fun! Check out our Top Sleepover Party Themes for more inspiration.

Painting Party

Each of our Glory themed parties come with an option to purchase themed canvas painting kits. Parents of artistic kids should definitely throw a canvas painting party to get their creative juices going and also help them learn more about Black History.
