Do you usually love going on nights out with your partner? Millions of couples do! However, with the autumn drawing in and bringing the cold and damp weather with it, it can be hard to sum up the energy for a proper date night at a bar or club! So that’s when you start having nights out inside. But if you or your partner often run out of ideas for things to do when it’s just the two of you, here are some to think about trying out.
Story Stages
Do a Murder Mystery for Two
Murdery mysteries are a lot of fun, so why not invest in a game for two and see how long it takes you to complete it? If you’re quite puzzle minded and love working out who, what, where, when, and why, this could be the dream night in for the two of you! You can find a lot of games online with different themes and mysteries, so you can even do a lot of these on various nights in a row if you find yourselves having the best time.
Challenge Each Other
It’s always fun to have a challenge or a race to see who finishes something the fastest. Ordering a load of your favorite foods and seeing who can down their dessert the quickest, or setting up an obstacle course and putting a timer on to see who reaches the end first, are two popular indoor date night ideas. If you and your partner love getting competitive, try this idea out first!
Get in the Christmas Mood Early
If either you or your partner are big Christmas lovers, why not get into the mood early on now that autumn is here? You don’t have to start decorating yet, but you can start streaming the best Christmas movies and make some festive themed snacks, like a thick and creamy hot chocolate and some spiced gingerbread men. If you’ve had a particularly bad week, this is just the activity you’ll need for getting your energy back! You can step into the weekend knowing Christmas is still on the way, and you’ve had just a little taste of how fun the festive season is going to be for the two of you.
Turn the House into a Club
If you miss hitting the club together, you can turn your own living room, bedroom, or kitchen into a temporary bar and dance floor! Order in a dance mat, or stick down some colored cellophane and border it with duct tape, dim the lights, connect your phone to the speakers, and then pour the drinks. It’s even better if you can invest in some glitter cannons or balloons to explode and throw out at various points during the night! Then bust your moves and create some crazy cocktails for each other.
When the days turn into nights a lot sooner, and it’s getting super chilly outside, cozy up with your partner and have plenty of fun!
