Planning a date night at home is a great way to have some casual fun with your sweetheart!
No babysitter? No plans? NO PROBLEM!
I definitely enjoy a night out on the town, but I also enjoy being in the comfort of my home with the one I love the most! The date idea I’m sharing today is simple, relaxing and totally fun! So put the kids to bed, set down your phones and get ready to reconnect!
Here is how it works –
Your Choice, My Choice – A Date Night At Home
Each of you get to make a couple choices…
Choice 1 – A Treat to Eat
Some of our favorite options are-
- pizza
- Buffalo Chicken Dip
- popcorn or snack mix
- hot cocoa
Choice 2 – A Game to Play
I like game boards, he likes video games. We each pick 1 favorite and then we play them both, together! A couple of our favorite 2-player games are –
- Yahtzee
- Phase 10
- Skip Bo
- Mario Cart (his choice, obviously!)
- Conversation Starters (<Click the link to download our Printable Conversation Starters. Cut into strips, put them in a jar, then each of you take turns answering the question you choose.)
The Set Up –
- Put the kids to bed, get in some comfy clothes, and put away your phones and computers.
- For a special touch, light some candles. (Candles always make everything more romantic!)
- Bust out the snacks and drinks, then each of you grab your games!
- Play until your heart is content!
It was SO nice to not have the distractions of our phones/computer. We just focused on the game at hand and we had so much fun together.
Well, there it is…a quick and quiet night with your spouse at home!
