Valentine’s Day isn’t just about couples, it can also be a time to celebrate your family! Family date night is the perfect way to turn Valentine’s Day into an evening for your entire family!

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, the importance of setting aside time for your loved ones is very important. When you become a family it’s easy to see how important it is to build your relationship and make time for them on this special occasion.

Family nights out are a great way to make everyone feel special and enjoy this holiday (or really just any day at all). We’ve got easy-to-plan family date night ideas that can add a touch of sweetness to Valentine’s Day this year!

1. Family Ice Cream Sundae Night

When I think of Valentine’s Day, I think of all things sweet! Whether it’s chocolate or strawberries or cake or ice cream, I want a sweet treat for Valentine’s Day.

Instead of going out on a romantic date and sharing a dessert, take the sweet inspiration and turn it into a family date night! It’s so easy!

Gather your favorite ice cream flavors, syrups, nuts, and sprinkles. Then gather everyone in the kitchen and have an ice cream sundae night. Let everyone make their own sundae just the way they like it, and enjoy the sugar rush together.

2. Family Bonfire Night

Sitting together in front of the fire is so romantic, right? Well, a good fire can be a great way to bond with your family too!

If weather permits, gather around the fire pit or bonfire. This is a great way to warm up! Make smores, tell stories, look at photo albums, and enjoy being unplugged for a while. If you can’t get to a bonfire, a fireplace is a great alternative!

3. Family Movie Night

Watching movies is an easy thing to plan just add in a romantic dinner and it will work well for Valentine’s Day. It’s also an idea that is easily adapted and is one of the favorite family date night ideas for anyone and you can go out or stay in.

Gather some snacks and either head to the theatre or rent a movie to watch at home. Find a family-friendly flick that everyone can enjoy. This is a great way to spend some time together while being entertained.

4. Family Concert Night

Picture sitting with your partner, listening to some good music, and sipping on your favorite drink. There is definitely romantic date potential there. But you can take your kids to enjoy good music too.

Plan a family night out around a music event! Get everyone some culture in honor of Valentine’s Day!

Find a concert at a local school, club, or recreation center. Take the family to a musical event to enjoy the tunes and the time together. Chances are you can find free events in your area, or find inexpensive tickets on reputable websites.

5. Family Volunteer Night

If you want your family night-out ideas to center around a theme of love, you can always think outside of your family. Valentine’s Day is a great time to talk about showing people how you care.

Pick a place for your family to volunteer together. This can be a soup kitchen or pet refuge center. Volunteering together allows you to bond as a family while helping others in need. Another perk about this family date night idea is that it doesn’t cost anything to help others! Call local not for profits in your area to find a location in need of volunteers.

6. Family Baking Night

The family baking night is also a sweet take on a family date night. It’s the perfect time to whip up these sweets I’ve been talking about!

Gather the flour and sugar and enjoy a family baking night. Make cookies, bread, or cake, and enjoy it when you are done. Or, you can always take some of your baked goods to a neighbor or friends who may be alone this Valentine’s Day!

OVERVIEW:

Are you ready to enjoy the perfect family date night? It may not be the romantic Valentine’s Day date that all of the commercials want us to think we need to have, but it will be a great time for bonding with your family.

Valentine's day can be celebrated in so many ways, some prefer to celebrate it fancily and some others want it simple, it could also be spent together with your partners, families, or any loved ones but I think the most important thing is to always love and bring love to everyone, every day.
