  • Boardgame night
  • Video game night
  •  Sundaes + movie
    • There are so many cute accessories to have an ice cream sundae bar!
  • Picnic at home
    • I love our picnic basket and blanket! We use it all of the time. They really come in handy too if you decide you want to picnic at a park or somewhere else besides your home.
  • Theme dinner – from another country, era, etc. pretend you're really in that place/time!
    • Even dress up with what you can find from around the house to make it more fun!

  • Spa Night
  • Build a blanket fort
  • Have a fancy candlelit dinner
  • Stargaze
    • I'm actually super nerdy when it comes to the stars! I think its absolutely mesmerizing. If you have never looked through a telescope it will quickly become your new hobby! I recommend this telescope for beginners and kids! This constellation book is pretty cool too! Your kids will love it, but it's better for when they are a little older, at least 7+.
  • Fashion Show + Makeovers
  • Write a story together, then act it out. 
  • Write your own book
    • Here's a super cool kit that is designed for kids to draw out their own book, it has everything you need!

  • Camp out in the backyard
  • Do some science experiments

  • Go to a concert
  • Go see a ballet or play
  • Take a class together (at a craft store, or at a gym)
    • Michaels Craft Store offers monthly classes and some are strictly for kids. Also, keep an eye on Lowe's Home Improvement calendar, they offer classes on Saturday mornings for building things.
  • Go to a fancy restaurant – get all dressed up too. How often do you get the chance to dress up after all?
  • Have tea and scones at an upscale location
    • Check your local American Girl Stores or fancier hotels, usually, they have a monthly calendar where they host events.
  • Visit an amusement park 
  • See a show, such as Disney on Ice

  • Go ziplining 
  • Go to a paint studio
  • Go to a real spa 
  • Get tickets to a sporting event
  • Take a day trip to a nearby town, walk around and have lunch at someplace new. 

One thing I know for sure is that time flies by and we never get enough time to spend with our mother or daughter (respectively). Set up a special date now and stick to it. And whatever it is your choose to do, do it regularly – without fail. Enjoy, laugh and hug each other as often as possible!!

I hope you enjoy.

    I love this post. One of my favorite things to do is create memorable moments. I talk about it with my family often – and we do it in my nuclear family. We will be using some of these ideas – I’ve wanted to try geocaching! Kudos to you and Nell on the 5K! Bobbi and I read a book together this summer – Silver Sparrow by Tayari Jones. The book had characters in my age group and hers who suffered dramatic life changing events. The discussions we had were revealing, thought provoking and bonding. Yeah to Mother Daughter activities.

      How old is your daughter? I’m interested in doing this with my daughter, but she is 11 and I’m wondering if this would be appropriate for us.

      Elizabeth….how did you do the reading? Take turns reading a few pages, etc?
      How much time…..like a shorter book? She’s an adult and we both like to read.

    On the оther hand, if yоu’re interested in fоrming a lоng-term relatiоnship, if yоu’re wоndering hоw tо make yоur man cоmmit tо yоu withоut being clingy, оr if yоu simply want a relatiоnship guide that is practical and easy tо fоllоw, then the Make Him A Mоnоgamy Junkie can be a great оptiоn fоr yоu.

    I have 2 daughters (10 & 8) and I love this list! I think the best part is that you don’t have to plan ahead! We love going shopping (of the window variety mostly), bowling, minigolf….who doesn’t like movies, and going out for ice cream? I think this is a great last minute list and can be tweaked if you are having an all date to include more than one item!
    Thanks for the ideas!

      Ayden, I would start by writing her a letter! Tell her how you feel and how much you care about her, then use a few ideas from this list to plan some “dates”. :) You can email me if you ever need to chat! [email protected]
