Whether it’s cuddling inside while there’s a snowstorm outside or having a snowball fight, love during the winter warms all of our frozen hearts. Here’s a list of fun winter date ideas to try instead of the old Netflix & Chill.
1. Ice Skating
A classic winter option that’s too often slept on, ice skating is a top tier wintertime date idea. Find your nearest outdoor ice rink, rent some skates, and have fun sliding (and falling) on the ice with your partner! Even if you can’t ice skate well, that just ensures more couples fun and laughter on your day out.
2. Holiday Movie Marathon
If you’re still feeling the holiday spirit and want to share your favorite holiday movies with your partner, now’s the time. Set up a cozy holiday movie night, fully-equipped with snacks and cozy decor and watch your favorite films together. We recommend buying matching holiday pajama pants and making this an annual tradition— because everything is so much more fun when you’re matching!
3. Cozy Night In
As the nights start earlier and they get far colder, a cozy night in is the perfect way to have a winter date night. Get some card and board games— we recommend We’re Not Really Strangers— put on some face masks, and get ready to spend some quality time with your partner! You can make charcuterie boards in preparation and make sure to be ready for some deeper conversations with your significant other.
4. Snow on the Beach
If you’re in an area near a beach and there’s it snows, take a road trip! Enjoying the beauty of the ocean during its off-season is a wonderful way to spend quality time with your partner. You can play in the snow like kids, take cold plunges in the water together, or just sit in your car and watch the waves— all good ways to have a great time together!
5. Silly Dress Dinner Date
Everyone loves an inside joke— so why not get dressed up for an event that you and your partner aren’t attending. Make reservations for a fancy dinner date and surprise each other with the weirdest thrifted outfits you can find! Bonus points if you go thrifting together and blindly pick out clothes that don’t match! You’ll hardly be able to keep in your laughter as the other restaurant guests sit and judge your attire, but at least you two will be having fun!
