At Home Dates
Not into going out? These are some fun ways we thought up that you can still have fun at home!
1.Bake cookies together and enjoy a bottle of wine. Maybe a little kitchen dance party to some throwback songs to spice it up!
2. Play games to get the conversation going! We recommend the Date Night Game for some quality conversation.
3. Make a blanket fort in the living room to watch your favorite movie! Don’t forget the popcorn, drinks, and chocolate!
4. Order some take-out and enjoy a cooking-free night!
5. Go to a department store (like Walmart), split up, and buy each other: something to drink, something to snack on, something fun/funny for the other person to wear, and something to do together. Then come home, swap bags, and see what the other person got!
