Spending time together is a much-loved thing among couples. From starting the day with a fancy breakfast to ending it with a movie night, couples always plan out their Valentine’s Day way ahead of time. But what’s better than planning a stay-at-home date that is both unforgettably special and also within the budget?
A self-planned stay-at-home date that allows you to take advantage of your warm bedroom for a cute breakfast in bed, the cozy couches in your living room for Netflix and board games, and your aesthetic backyard for a lavish candlelight dinner.
Here are 7 fun stay-at-home date ideas for you to make your Valentine’s Day or your anniversary fulfilling yet romantic.
The best way to start the day is to surprise your loved one with breakfast in bed. Either prepare a usual spread of bread, eggs, and fruit or go a mile extra with some fancy breakfast recipes for Valentine’s Day.
Enjoy the scrumptious breakfast in your cozy bed, take some pictures for the gram if you are enthusiastic about sharing your day on social media, or enjoy it as a private moment.
Crafting together is always a fun activity when it comes to stay-at-home date ideas for Valentine’s Day. And what is better than going back in time and reviewing your year with your loved one. That is to say, for all journal lovers, this 2-page printable 2021 year review is an activity to be enjoyed by all. And the best part? You can save it up in a binder and take it out next year and reflect upon it.
Spas are the best way to take a break from your hectic routine and de-stress yourself. And nothing beats enjoying an at-home spa with your significant other. So, bring out all the essential oils, body scrubs, bath salts, and scented candles for a luxurious spa at the comfort of your home. Take turns, relax, and see how this stay-at-home date on Valentine’s Day becomes the best time you’ve spent together.
Trivia games for date nights are a great way to get to know each other even better. Either find a list of fun questions online or make up some of your own, here’s a list of some interesting questions to help you kick start your trivia game for the date night:
- If you could win a lifetime supply of one thing, what would it be?
- If I could lock up a person in a madhouse, who would I pick?
- If you no longer had to work a 9-5 job to live comfortably, what would you do with your life?
- If I could be a superhero, what would I choose?
Couples often challenge each other for a cook-off and so this Valentine’s Day set up a dinner cook-off with your partner and see who manages to nail the taste better. Either choose a specific course, to begin with, or start small with an easy, no-cook appetizer if you aren’t big on cooking. In addition to this, you can also pick one ingredient and come up with a recipe that stars it. And after messing up the kitchen counter, loading the sink with dirty pots and pans, we are sure that you would’ve managed to create something impeccable.
Even if you haven’t, it’s the memories that would count towards making this stay-at-home date incomparable.
Light up your living room or your loft with some pretty fairy lights and beautifully scented candles, for a romantic dinner date that is both cozy and personable. Most importantly, don’t forget to enjoy the food you’ve cooked together. And even if you haven’t, then order in and layout a fancy spread. Lastly, don’t forget to add that extra oomph of classic romance with some preserved red roses that you can keep for long even after this stay-at-home date ends.
End the day with a beautiful sing-along hour as Karaoke is always anticipated as one of the most fun at-home dates! You can either sing your hearts to a list of favorite songs or search some playlists on YouTube and humm along. And later that night, cozy up on the living room couch and watch a movie, you both love.
These romantic stay-at-home date ideas are sure to save you from the stress of finding a babysitter or finding a parking spot in the busy downtown. So, be sure to plan out your celebrations in the warmth of your home with your special someone because nothing can be as memorable, as relaxing and as fun as a low-key celebration within the comfort of your home.
