Date Night Ideas AT HOME
If you are a mom or dad of young ones, like me, it might be hard to get out for date nights as often as you would like. Or maybe you are more of a homebody, trying to save money, or wanting to plan a GIRL’S NIGHT in!
Whatever your situation, here are some great ideas to spend time with your special someone at home on Valentine’s Day.
FOOD IDEAS:
Make a fun, easy dinner
Cook together
Cook something new, or a fancy dinner you don’t usually make, but really like!
Order in!
Have an indoor picnic
My favorite easy food is pizza. Form it in a heart, write with pepperoni and voila! a very special meal.
DESSERT and DRINKS:
Do a beer or wine tasting
Make ice cream sundaes
MOVIES:
Watch the first movie you ever watched together
Watch movie and make popcorn (pick the movie the day before so you don’t waste date night time picking a flick)
PLAY:
Play a game for 2 – Puzzles, Card Games, Boggle, Scattergories, Carcassone, Settlers of Catan
Play video games.
Trivia Game – How Well Do You Know Your Partner, How Well Do You Know Me?, Newlywed Game
ACTIVE:
Do a home workout together
Put the kids in the stroller and go on a walk around the neighborhood. But talk about YOU, not the kids!
Do yoga together
Do Karaoke. Seriously. YouTube “Karaoke Songs With Lyrics” and get singing!!
Do this silly couples challenge: Try to go all the way around your spouse without touching the ground. It’s really funny AND requires you get very close. Should start some sparks as you laugh!
ROMANTIC:
Look at your wedding album. Share your favorite moments.
Plan a date night for the future.
Plan a trip together. 
Share your favorite thing about the other person. See how many things you can list!
We hope you enjoy this list and use some of these ideas this Valentine’s Day. Let us know if you do, and of course share YOUR ideas so we can add to our list for next year!
