Good Date Ideas: Game Night
Do you and your honey need some time to play? Then check out these ideas for a game night date. Good fun! Game night can run the gamut from a quiet night at home to a full on night of painting the town red. You can go big or go home, either way you'll have fun together, which is really the idea of any good date.
Board Games
It's hard not to laugh (and even get a little frisky) when you break out the Twister mat. Invite friends to join in, and make your own giant Twister-style mat by painting dots on a drop cloth. Bend your brain with games like Taboo or Scattergories. Play Scrabble using only words that are specific to your relationship.
Card Games Raid your kids' UNO deck and watch your inner competitor come alive. Host a casino night for friends using fake money (with your faces on the bills) that guests can use to bid on door prizes at the end of the night. Looking for something a little more risque? Two words: strip poker.
Interactive Games Games like Guitar Hero or Dance Off get you moving and possibly acting silly, forgetting all the monotony and stress of parenting, which is a good idea for a date with your spouse. You could also rent or borrow a karaoke machine to serenade your love.
Make Up Your Own Games Design a romantic scavenger hunt as a surprise for your mate, bringing you both back to important locales from your past—the spot where he proposed, where you first kissed, the restaurant you went to on your first date, the hospital where your kids were born, your first apartment together, your dream house, etc. Make your date a group event by getting together friends who are also looking for a good date idea and designing your own Amazing Race, with a prize at the end for the first to arrive.
