You don’t have to feel like you’re missing out on your romantic dates together it’s just aboutpivoting them a little, well indoors!
Here are some fun indoor date ideas to stay connected!
Date Night During Social Distancing Idea #1: Go Camping in Your Living Room
Build a fort out of sheets and clothespins or pitch a tent if you have one. Put a blow-up mattress inside or, if you don’t have one layer cozy rugs over yoga mats and blankets. Hang string lights inside and out grab a guitar or your current book and pour some wine and get cozy!
Date Night During Social Distancing Idea #2: Plan Your Next Adventure
It’s never too soon to start daydreaming and planning where you’re going to travel to next. Sit down and (secretly) writes out your top 3 dream locations to travel to in 2021. Put them in a jar or a basket and shake it all around and the paper you pull is where you’re going!
Date Night During Social Distancing Idea #3: Watch a Movie from your Childhood
Pick your favorite nostalgic movie from your youth and take it one step further by pairing it with a comforting snack or meal that you loved from that time period.
Date Night During Social Distancing Idea #4: Enjoy the Sunrise or Sunset
Try setting your alarm, grabbing a cup of coffee and your favorite pastry and cuddling up with a blanket to watch the sunrise from your patio (or window). Or take a stroll around your neighborhood at sunset with a glass of wine hidden safely in your Hydroflask (shhhhhh I won’t tell!)

Have you ever checked out Creative Live? They offer awesome classes and workshops such as floral arranging, arts & crafts, design, money and business, etc. There’s something for everyone.
