Hopefully these date ideas will inspire you to spend some time with someone you love!
1. Find a recipe and cook it together. Make it a theme night and play music to match the type of meal.
2. Go off the grid for the weekend- no cell phones, no TV, no computers. You’ll be amazed at what you can do for entertainment.
3. Go see a movie at the drive-in.
4. Go to a restaurant you both have never been to and order their specialty.
5. Buy 3 bottles of the cheapest wine and have your own wine tasting at home.
6. Play a board game.
7. Go bowling and order cheese fries.
8. Have a spa night. Take a relaxing bath then follow up by taking turns giving each other massages.
9. Movie or TV marathon.
10. Play some miniature golf.
11. Hit some balls at the batting cages.
12. Be in control and go to a shooting range. Be careful!
13. Put together a puzzle.
14. Go on a food crawl. Go to a different restaurant for an appetizer, entrée, and dessert.
15. Go fishing with worms.
16. Dress up to the nines and test drive a car you have no intention to buy.
17. Pack lots of blankets and drive out in the country to look at the stars. Don’t forget brownies!
18. Snuggle up by the fire and read a book with hot chocolate together.
19. Give yourself an imaginary budget. Then separately go online and pick out all the things you would buy for each other with the money.
20. Get active! Go on a bike ride, hike, geocache, etc.
Have you heard of ‘couch dates’? They’re a great way to stay regularly connected to your lover every week or so. I’d love to hear more suggestions on fun things to spice up a Wednesday night!
Cute ideas! We tried going putt putt on vacation but the placed closed at 9pm. Boo! As love couch dates. An on-demand movie + chips = perfect. We also want to try a painting class which my sister in law just did, and we definitely want to see Mockingjay when it comes out. In an actual theater!
Put Putting is so much fun! I’m sad it closed too soon for you! I’ve seen those wine & canvas classes that look like a ton of fun! Mockingjay will be seen by me at the midnight premier so Jeffrey will have to wait until it comes out on Blu Ray (that’s usually how it works with the YA book-to-movies because he’s not the biggest fan.) 🙂 We play board games for our date nights most of the time!
We play Magic The Gathering for our date nights, board games are more for us and the kids. We always wanted to put together a puzzle but we also want it framed and put up on the wall.
I’ve never played Magic but I’ve heard of it! Sophie can’t quite play our games yet. 😉 We like puzzles a lot but only do maybe 2 per year…always one at Christmas though!
