Creative Date Ideas: Go on a Scavenger Hunt

Remember the required scavenger hunts on middle school field trips? Yeah, we weren't too thrilled by the pattern on Aaron Burr's favorite handkerchief, either. But next time you're looking for fun, creative date ideas, why not kick it old school and go on a scavenger hunt date? No, not the boring, eighth-grade-history-class kind! You can make your scavenger hunt date a romantic scavenger hunt with saucy clues and rewards!

Planning a romantic scavenger hunt can be a little tricky, so here are a few tips:

• Decide the format for your scavenger hunt. Will you and your dude complete the list of clues separately or together? Once you've decided, put together a practice list—just so you're both on the same page.
  
• Come up with really creative clues. Then, disperse your clues and items over a few hours. Assign points for each item on your list.
  
• Turn up the heat and turn on the romance! Keep the hunt romantic by making sure all of the clues and items on your list somehow incorporate both of you and your relationship—whether it's the location of your first date, a photo or something a bit sassier. Be creative with your ideas!
  
• Once you've completed the scavenger hunt, add up your points to determine the winner. The loser owes the winner a rubdown—or some other creative reward! (Wink! Wink!)

Leave the two ton history books at home and hit the town for a romantic scavenger hunt—it's a fresh, creative date idea that will get you movin'!
