If you have asthma or a serious infection that requires medication, tell the parents or guardian of the host. Bring allergy medication with you if you have any allergies, especially if the host has a pet that you might be allergic to. You should also bring your prescription glasses if you need them, if your eyesight isn’t great be sure to not forget them!

If this you’re worried about this, you can always ask the host parents for specifics about what you’ll need.

Check with your parents ahead of time to make sure they don’t mind you bringing your cell phone to the sleepover. Make sure you have phone numbers for your parents, doctors, and anyone else the host parents may need to contact stored in your phone.

If you don’t have a sleeping bag, you can just bring pillows and blankets instead.

Always bring enough to share with everyone at the sleepover. Ask the host parents ahead of time to see if it’s okay for you to bring some snacks to share.

Bring an iPod or other MP3 player to play music during the sleepover. If you think you might have trouble sleeping or being away from home, consider bringing your favorite teddy bear or another comfort toy to sleep with.

Many cell phones have cameras on them as well. If you have a cell phone with a camera, it might be better to leave the camera at home to reduce the risk of losing a valuable electronic device.

Other parents may have different house rules than your parents, so you don’t want to accidentally bring something the host wouldn’t like. For example, some parents don’t allow candy in their house. It might be disrespectful to bring candy over for a sleepover if the host parents have prohibited candy in their home.
