  Well I have 11yr old girl-boy twins (Sebastian and Madi) and for the last 2yrs they have had separate parties. Depending on your daughter, in the room you could have- Creative things- clay (with tools), watercolours, potters wheel, painting models, clay moulds, painting magnets, making accessories (bracelets, necklaces, rings, little purses, ty-die t-shirts, draw tshirts, paint a mug, paint a piggy-bank, paint model animals) Fashion show! Get everybody to bring loads of clothes if possible, and go to the charity shop to getsome joke glasses, fake wigs, accessories, cheap and cheerful is best) have voting, competition, maybe get a parent (or you) to take photos of each person dressed up, send it to them later, or get them doing ty-die too, while the show's going on, or doing bead bracelets, or draw-on-bags! Singing! Get some kareoke, and get people to sing along, and have a few playstation or whatever games to do with singing, have a competition for people to sing, with prizes, etc; Random Games! Set up different 'stations' or 'stalls'. You can get foam skittles and a football/foam bowling, they are cheap at places like Toys R Us, and have that in one area. In another few areas, have random games. Get your daughter to ehlp choose some too. Beauty!!!! Place tools used for a manicure like easy to handle nail buffers and nail polish on a table. Provide several different colors of nail polishes in bold and vibrant shades that glitter or shimmer on the table. Let the girls have fun by giving each other manicures. Purchase several inexpensive fake rings and give them as party favors to the girls after their manicures.Let the party guests play hairdresser by having a hairstyling competition. Two small tables can serve as mini hair stations for this activity. The first table can have hair styling aids such as combs, hair pins and brushes. The next table can have hair accessories! . Award all of your guests with a cute barrette or headband to take home. Take glamour shots of the girls! Movies! Ask guests to bring their fave films or movies, and get as many from home as you can, or buy them (secondhand is best- great choice, still great image but cheap), everything from 'Tangled' to 'Harry Potter' to 'Northern Lights' to really fun disney ones like 'Bolt' (great film) or others like 'Charlotte's Web' and 'Dolphin Tale'. Give everyone some popcorn (or even better-at the start let them pop their own popcorn!) or some sweets (lay out selections, and let them choose, even more like going to the cinema), and get them to vote on the film. Watch it, and then they could have film themed party food! You can get cupcakes with 'photos' on it, like form harry potter? Or maybe you could give movie-themed invitations!!! You know, print out a photo of a cinema, or maybe lights and a red curtain etc;
