My daughter is turning 13 in January. She has no idea what she wants to do for her birthday, but knows she wants to do something special. She wants friends over (about 8-10, boys and girls), but it's a challenge to have a party at our house. She doesn't want to do anything really expensive and doesn't like super sporty, or retro themed parties. Any ideas?

Teen girls love to put on makeup. Why not have a makeup party where they can give each other facials, paint their nails and do their hair.
You could also take them bowling and have a pizza party for them.
Have a sleep over and a movie night. They can each bring a movie of their choice to watch at your home.
You can goto your grocery store and buy premade pizza crusts (dough is too messy for this type of party) and the kids can make their own pizzas. They may even have personal sized rounds. Frozen puff pastry works, as well. Or you can have them assemble quesadillas - they do nicely folded in half and baked on a cookie sheet. Kids like food and most of them have fun creating things they are going to eat.
Win, lose, or draw, Taboo, or any team oriented game.
Piñatas are fun.
Rent a kareoke machine?
It will be cold in January. Stick with indoor activities like bowling, movies or skating. Many places have group deals where you get the activity, pizza and soda. You probably have to bring your own cake.
A bowling alley or arcade birthday party would be fun! Happy Early Birthday to your daughter.
