Guests resting at a sleepover

A sleepover, also known as a pajama party or a slumber party, is a party most commonly held by children or teenagers, where a guest or guests are invited to stay overnight at the home of a friend. A lock-in is a similar event held in a setting other than a private home, such as a school or church.
