A lock-in party provides a safe alternative for adolescents that keeps them entertained while also away from things such as drinking. Oftentimes this party has designated times where people are allowed in and out. This is usually an overnight activity that sees participants coming in sometime during the evening and leaving the next day.
Basics of a Lock-In
A lock-in should be a chill environment for people to hang out, chat, and have fun. Keep things serious but lighthearted by reinforcing the rules and also providing enough things to do. The exciting part of the rules is that you must get there before the doors close or else you’re not able to participate in the activities.
In addition to setting the rules, you need a space to hold the lock-in as well as activities planned that are well-paced and engaging enough to keep people entertained throughout the night or until they settle in for the sleepover. These can include active and passive activities such as arcade games, movies, music, etc. Including drinks and food options can also help with energy levels throughout the night.
Overall, the purpose of hosting a lock-in is to provide a fun night for kids while also keeping them out of trouble and away from bad influences.
