America Online's KOL(TM) Service for Kids and Blue Skies Media
Host First Ever Online Sleepover Party
Radio KOL DJ Rick Adams Brings Kids Across the Country Together for One Last
Blast Before School Starts
DULLES, Va., Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Kids can grab their pajamas and beat the
back to school blues with the first-ever online sleepover event from America
Online's KOL service for kids. Teaming up with Blue Skies Media, the producer
of the "MyBFF Presents Best Ever Sleepover!" DVD, an entertaining video about
hosting the ultimate sleepover party, the event invites kids across the country
to have sleepover parties at their homes and join thousands of others online
August 20th for one last celebration before school starts. The live event will
be hosted by popular Radio KOL DJ Rick Adams. Radio KOL, the KOL service's
daily live online radio show, will have a full schedule of games, activities,
music and fun, and the show will air live that evening from 8:00 p.m. to 11:00
p.m. ET in a special extended broadcast.
The sleepover event gives kids one last celebration before going back to school
and allows them to connect with other kids across the country through special
forums and community features. Sleepover MC Rick Adams will lead several
different activities from the Best Ever Sleepover! DVD including "Chairs in the
Air" and "Pop the Question." Kids can go to Keyword: Sleepover to get step by
step instructions for all of the activities and watch video segments from the
Best Ever Sleepover DVD so they can replicate them at their own parties. When
hunger strikes, Rick will help kids prepare delicious sleepover treats like
"Choco-licious Dip." Throughout the evening, kids can call Radio KOL from
their parties to request their favorite song or send a shout-out via email or
by instant message to other parties. KOL's "Hangout" area with its monitored
message boards and chatrooms will be open that evening, providing kids another
place to connect and communicate.
"We are excited to invite kids to this sleepover event," said Malcolm Bird,
Senior Vice President and General Manager, Kids and Teens. "By moving the
traditional sleepover party into the online environment, we are fostering a
shared experience for kids who can participate in fun new activities in concert
with other kids across the country. And of course, there is no better host for
this event than Radio KOL DJ Rick Adams who will play kids' favorite music and
engage them in fun games and activities for what will be a fun- filled
sleepover party like no other."
As summer days come to a close, it is the optimal time for kids to host a last
blast sleepover party before school begins. Before sending out invitations,
the KOL service and Blue Skies Media offer these five tips on how to host the
best-ever sleepover party:
1. Be a True Host: Make sure everyone feels included in your activities
and that everyone is having fun.
2. Practice Democracy: If everyone can't agree on what to do next, take a
vote and let the majority rule.
3. Take Lots of Pictures: Have instant or digital cameras available so
everyone can go home with a souvenir.
4. Don't Forget the Music: Tune into Radio KOL or pick out your favorite
CDs -- before your guests arrive.
5. Plan a Surprise: Maybe it's sneaking a late night snack in a
pillowcase or other fun unexpected treats.
