I know what you’re thinking, yuck, snow. Building a snowman can actually be a lot of fun, and you can become competitive with a mini competition of who can get the most creative or who can build a bigger snowman. It’s a great team building activity and only gives you a reason to warm up when you get back inside.

Go On A Christmas Drive

Aside from the fun of looking into nice houses without blinds and getting a preview of what each home looks like indoors, it’s just so pretty seeing all the unique lights and layouts! Make some hot chocolate, grab a yummy snack, blare the Christmas classic tunes and get in the car. It’s a reasonably cheap date and gives you a chance to take a mini adventure and explore a place you may not be familiar with.

Make A Gingerbread House

If you don’t have the plus-one option at your work or families holiday party, you may also not have an opportunity to get dressed up and enjoy a good meal with your partner. So why not plan a night and splurge a little bit on a once in a lifetime dinner date at an expensive restaurant and have a night worth celebrating; your relationship.

Go Ice Skating

You can go to your local hockey arena and rent some skates or you can go to an outdoor pond that’s frozen over (as long as it’s safe). Plus if he’s already really good at skating, it’ll give you a reason to fall all over the place and into him, and he’ll totally love how goofy and awkward you are.

Visit A Holiday Market

Go On A Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride
