Now, sometimes the holiday season isn't always as warm and fuzzy like the romantic comedies always display. Sure we all get busy during this time of the year, but it is really important to make time for the ones you love. Here are some fun date ideas to have with your significant other this holiday season!
Walk Around and Look at Holiday Lights. Many neighborhoods go all out on their holiday decorations, so why not take the time to go admire their work with your loved one? You can explore your local area or go somewhere new! Play some holiday music on the way to your destination and bring some hot chocolate or apple cider to enhance the experience.
Have a Snow Day. When we think of winter, all snow activities come to mind. So if you're lucky enough to live in an area where you can experience snow take advantage of it! Build a snowman, go sledding, have a snowball fight or even make snow angels! All of these activities can be super fun to do with your partner.
Attend a Christmas Concert or Play. No matter where you are you can always find a local Christmas concert during this time of the year. Some of the most popular things to see are A Christmas Carol or The Nutcracker. If you're on a tight budget and can't afford tickets to a fancy concert or play, check to see if any nearby schools are putting on any holiday shows.
See the Zoo Lights. Most major zoos all around the United States have been participating in this ever popular phenomenon. The zoos decorate with dazzling light displays, festive decor, and holiday music all around the property. Some even offer special holiday exhibits!
Go to a Theme Park. Theme parks go all out during the holidays! From festive decorations and food to holiday themed rides, this could be a fun adventure with your significant other. The only downside is that this option can be a bit pricey.
Ice Skating. This is the most classic holiday season date out there. Ice Skating dates are a staple in holiday romance movies. This very active activity can be fun to do with a partner. Plus you'll have someone to help keep you balanced the entire time.
Enjoy a Holiday Beverage Together. Coffee dates are so underrated! There's nothing more intimate than grabbing a beverage at a coffee shop and sitting and chatting with someone. So many coffee shops have holiday beverages out during this time of the year. Why not spend an afternoon with your loved one drinking some tasty holiday beverages and have some great conversations. If you can't sit for long or want to be active, take your cups to go and go for a walk.
Go Christmas Shopping Together. While this sounds like a terrible idea, this might be the most practical date you and your significant other can do this holiday season. Let's face it, Christmas shopping is horrible. So why not make the most of it and make it a date too? You both have to do some shopping this holiday season, so why not do it together? Plus you can enjoy holiday decorations at the shopping centers and malls and maybe grab a bite to eat after!
Attend a Tree Lighting. Christmas Tree Lighting ceremonies have become more and more popular every year. For some cities, it's their main event during the holiday season and they go all out. If a tree lighting ceremony is going on near you, why not take your special someone and make it a romantic night out.
Watch a Holiday Movie. Curling up on a couch and watching a holiday movie with your loved one is a simple and easy date to do during this time of the year. The only downside is that it may not feel like a date, it might be something you do every night. Some movie theaters will play classic and favorite holiday movies throughout this time of the year. So if watching a holiday movie on the big screen sounds perfect for you, check out what your local movie theater is offering this holiday season!
Volunteer. If you and your partner love to give back to your community why not spend the holiday season volunteering together? It can be something as simple as collecting canned goods for a food bank or putting together gifts for organizations like Toys For Tots. If you and your partner feel like doing more, volunteer your time and spend the day at a place like a homeless shelter or senior center. Giving back while spending time with your partner will make you both feel great!
Now these ideas are not limited to couples only. Spending time with friends is also important, and any of these dates can be a great activity for some best friend quality time. What is important to remember is to make time for the people you care about in your life. Now go enjoy yourself and spend some time with the ones you care about! Until tomorrow.
