Lets Be Kids Date Night

Picture Source

This is a new twist to a at home date night. This week’s date night is all about being a kid. This is a great Saturday morning date. Preparation for this date is easy and it doesn’t cost much. First pick out a favorite sugary cold cereal you used to love as a kid, pick out one for your spouse as well. Pick up a fun children’s board game that you enjoy, there are many available like trouble, candy land, chutes and ladders and connect 4. Uno is also a great option. If you have some Lego's laying around get those out too, or any other kind of building toy.

Wake up early and make yourself and your spouse some yummy kid cereal. Then watch some Saturday morning cartoons together, or find some of your favorite kids shows from your past on YouTube or other streaming services. Saturday morning cartoons was a favorite pastime of my husband.  Then play the board game you choose. Another fun activity would be to give yourself a 30 second time limit to build something fun and unique out of your Lego's. Or even spend time building a masterpiece together. While you are building spend time talking about your childhood. Talk about things you loved as a kid. If you have children talk about what you want their childhood to be like. Being intentional about your conversation during date night helps build intimacy and closeness with your partner.
