So, grab a cup of hot cocoa, browse through our favorite ideas, and soak up the magic of Winter dates! ☕❄️

1.Build a Gingerbread House

Keep life simple, purchase a kit from the store, and enjoy decorating together. If you’re looking for an alternative, use graham crackers and your own frosting and candy to create something unique.

2.Go Shopping for Matching PJs

Walking hand in hand to the store, pick out festive pajamas to wear together. They do not have to match. But either way, you’ll be comfy, cozy, and have a blast!

3. Bake and Decorate Cookies

Keep it simple and use premade dough, or go all out and bake them from scratch. Either way fulfills the main goal, spending quality time together.

4. Go to a Parade or See Christmas Lights

Most parades and even some Christmas light shows are free of charge. Take this low-cost date idea and make it your own!

5. Make a Winter Playlist

Create a playlist together. Then, throughout the season, add to it. When you listen to the songs throughout the season, you’re sure to think of the other, even when you’re busy.

6. Volunteer

Your time is the most valuable gift you can give. Volunteering together brings not only the two of you together but also closer to the community you’re serving.

7. Have an Indoor Picnic

Cook your favorites or order takeout. Lay down a fuzzy blanket and enjoy a meal together with no interruptions. Bonus festive points if you do this by the Christmas tree or fireplace.

8. Bundle Up and Take a Winter Walk through the Woods or a Park

Break out the fuzzy hats and oversized coats. Walk mitten in mitten through the crisp, fresh air outside. It’s a great way to clear your head during the bustle of the Christmas season.

9. Instead of Making Resolutions, Talk about Life Dreams

New Year resolutions typically don’t get followed through with. Instead, talk about your hopes and wildest dreams. It’s fun to daydream, but also gives you an insight to your partner’s deepest desires.

10. Write Letters or Send Cards to Loved Ones

Christmas cards, or just simple “thinking of you cards.” Everyone loves to get sweet mail.

11. Hot Cocoa and Move Night

A classic! Make your own cocoa and put on a favorite movie. And don’t forget the marshmallows!
