February is the sweetest month of the year and with Valentine’s Day falling on a Tuesday, you may start to notice “weeknight date ideas” frequenting your search history.
If date night consisting of getting dinner or seeing a movie is feeling worn, we have just the thing! Here are some fun date night alternatives that are perfect for weeknights!
Play Laser Tag
If you’re looking for a different kind of date night, then laser tag is a fun way to engage your brain and build teamwork. Laser tag is a fun, carefree way to bond with your partner while engaging in friendly competition or playing together. It will keep you on your toes and provide you with a memorable experience that is inexpensive and can be easily planned during the week. If you really want to mix it up, you could even bring the kids along!
Attend a Trivia Night
Want to get nerdy? Check out your local bar or entertainment center’s schedule and attend their next trivia night. Trivia nights are not only a great way to unleash your inner nerd or movie buff, but also a chance to learn about your partner. You never know what hidden interests your partner may have, and you’re sure to learn some new fun facts together at trivia night.
Go to an Arcade
A little friendly competitive never hurt anyone! Going to an arcade is a great way to spend some time together and give your partner an opportunity to show off their skills. In addition to being a fun and inexpensive way to spend time together, it allows you to let loose and burn off some energy while working together to win prizes.
Beat an Escape Room
Overcoming challenges together is a key part of a healthy relationship, and what better way to practice than by visiting an escape room? Escape rooms are fun, challenging and combine teamwork with problem solving and critical thinking. If one or both of you are into puzzles, it’s the perfect activity for you. You can even use it as a double date opportunity with your friends!
