A quiet and romantic candlelit dinner and movies afterwards

Dinner out would be a welcome date night. Or maybe a movie. We haven’t had a child-free date since she was born.
Stacey B
We don’t get the chance to go out much as we have 3 kids and not a lot of babysitting help – just a night out to dinner is enjoyable for me!
Lisa Brown
no many date nights for me, but i love going to have a great sushi dinner with my husband on the rare occasion.

We like to get a movie from the Redbox, and our favorite take out food. We save a little, but still have a nice night together.
Connie
Just going out to eat someplace quiet and then going for a nice walk.
Thabal
Sometimes, we buy themed frozen food from Trader Joes and cook at home. Finish it with board games – scrabble, chess and we really enjoy them.
Jenni Collins
A favorite date night of ours is as simple as a dinner and a movie out without our 2 years old. Sometimes instead of going to see a movie we walk around a mall and grab snack foods from different vendors and window shop.
