Romantic Ideas For Married Couples

Romantic Ideas For Married Couples

When the kids were little, we didn?t leave them with babysitters so we used to have a movie night at home. We would get popcorn, snuggle under a blanket and watch a movie or two.

--------------------

Early morning walks can work if your husband is an early bird and a cup of coffee together before the children wake.

--------------

Fireside cuddles are great with some music.

--------------

Games evenings work well when you shut off the TV and just enjoy a game of back gammon or scrabble.

---------------------

When your children are little and you are not able to leave them briefly - take a walk in evening with the toddler in pram and baby in a carrier. If you have older children they can be left on their own or with a teen for 20 minutes while you hold hands and take a walk.

------------------

We don?t do sleep-overs for our children but we have on occasion let them stay a night with their grandparents. This is always a great time for us.
