5 Simple or Little Prep Hospital Date Nights
I don’t know about you but I love it when date night is simple and requires little prep! That’s why the following date night ideas are perfect for hospital stays. They’re low-key, don’t need a lot of prep, and most importantly they’re FUN!
- Plan a relaxing date night. Bring a basket of “spa” items to the hospital room to give your spouse a hand and/or foot massage, do face masks together while you watch a movie, paint nails, brush hair, etc. You can also ditch the scratchy hospital robes and each wear your own comfy robe instead! Here’s a robe for her, and one for him.
- Bring sketchbooks and pencils and draw each other.
- Plan a YouTube date night.
- Make a couples bucket list together of all the things you want to do and see after you’re finally out of “hospital jail.”
- Have a journaling date night. Write down your favorite memories, the blessings you’ve witnessed during your hospital stay, things you’re grateful for, and more! You can even start this A Year Of Us journal during your stay, and continue filling it out once you’ve returned home.
That’s a wrap! Can you think of anything else? If so, leave a comment below! 🩷
It’s my hope that these date nights will help you keep the romance alive during this current season of your life. Wishing you a short hospital stay, and a quick return to your home and families!
Hugs!
