    You might not be kids anymore, but arcades are still super fun and entertaining—it’s easy to get lost there for a few hours! Play all your favorite arcade games together, whether you and your partner duke it out in a fast-paced racing game or find a cooperative multiplayer game that lets you play on the same team.
    • Complete the date by grabbing a bite to eat afterward, whether you find some treats at the arcade or head to a favorite restaurant together.

    Dancing is a super romantic activity, and thanks to the internet, you don’t need to take a formal class to learn to dance with your partner! Simply browse YouTube for a tutorial that looks appealing, whether the two of you are interested in learning salsa, ballroom, swing, or tango dances, and spend a few hours figuring out the dance together.

    First, decide what kind of crafts you want to do with your date and grab any supplies you’ll need—ideally, things you already have lying around the house. Then, lay down some newspapers to set up your crafting area and get to work. The best thing about arts and crafts is that you don’t need to be a master artist to make something truly awesome!

    Ever admire photos of rainy streets or blooming flowers covered in raindrops? Try taking a few of those gorgeous rainy photos yourself! Head outside with your date and see how many photo opportunities you can find—or turn it into a competition and see who can take the most unique photo . When you’re done, head home and look through your pictures together.
    • Make sure you’ve got an umbrella to keep yourself and your phone dry, or cover your phone with a plastic bag to keep it safe.
    • Alternatively, try hanging out under a dry spot, like an awning or porch, as you take photos to stay dry.

    Pick a recipe that both of you are eager to try, and ensure you’ve got all the necessary ingredients (or make a quick trip to the grocery store together). Then, work as a team to prepare each ingredient and cook the meal together—and when you’re done, don’t forget to enjoy it! A fancy homecooked meal can be even more satisfying than something you ordered. [3]
    • To create a romantic ambiance, light a few candles and play some mood music while you eat. And, of course, don’t forget to crack open the windows so you can hear the gentle sounds of rainfall.

    Often, local performances are less expensive than big-name performers—plus, when you buy last-minute tickets, you may be able to get them at a discount. Check out the schedules for any venues in your area, see if there’s a performance for you and your partner to attend, and spend your rainy date night enjoying the show!

    When it’s raining, check out nearby museums to brighten up the day. Find a museum with new exhibits you’ve never seen before, or head over to an old favorite and remind yourselves why you like that museum so much. Whether you’re interested in art, history, or science, there’s usually a museum worth checking out! [4]
    • Don’t feel like going to a museum? Then visit a local art gallery instead!
    • Alternatively, if there’s an aquarium in your area, stop by with your partner and look at all the amazing creatures there.

    Pick out a book for the two of you to read together, whether you find it in a bookstore, at the local library, or right on your own bookshelf. Then, cuddle up somewhere comfortable and take turns reading out loud to one another. When you’re done with the book (or just done reading for the day), take a little time to discuss what you read, too.
    • A quiet date like this can also help you appreciate all that rain and the soothing sounds of rainfall as you read to one another.

    Bowling is a super easy and fun date activity because it’s indoors, it’s easy to learn, and it’s laid-back enough that you and your date can snack, drink, and joke around together as you play. Head to a local bowling alley and play a few games together as you wait out the rain!
    • Want to make things interesting? Make a rule that whoever loses the most games has to buy the winner ice cream after you’re done at the bowling alley.

    Order some coffee or tea (and sweet treats, if you like) for you and your date. Then, find a table and sit down for a couple of hours somewhere you can chat, people-watch, and enjoy the sights and sounds of the rain as it falls. A coffee date at a cafe is a classic for a reason—it’s delicious, simple, and works for just about any kind of weather.
    • Have a few hours to spare? Rather than sticking to a single cafe, try visiting a few different ones in the area and sampling the coffee at each.
    • Then, between you and your partner, figure out which cafe has the best coffee overall!

Have an indoor picnic.

    Who says you can only have picnics when the sun is shining? Put together a delicious spread of picnic foods (for example, try making sandwiches or putting together a charcuterie board) and eat it somewhere the rain can’t bother you—like your living room floor, or a sheltered porch or balcony. [5]
    • Try not to turn on the TV or use your phone too much during the picnic—this is the time to chat with your partner and focus on enjoying one another’s company!

    For example, try visiting the nearest game store for a new board game, a bookstore for some new reading material, or an international grocery store for some wine and sweet treats to sample later. Alternatively, go to the local shopping mall and visit a whole bunch of stores in search of something fun and exciting for both of you.
    • Are you on a budget at the moment? No problem—go thrift shopping with your partner instead. Pick out cool or wacky outfits for one another as you shop!
    • See if there’s an indoor farmer’s market in your area where you can buy locally-grown produce, artisan baked goods, and handmade crafts.

    You don’t need to make elaborate plans for a date to be romantic or special. Take a simple stroll together—either around your neighborhood, through a nearby park, or somewhere else, like a bustling downtown area. Talk, explore, admire the sights, and take your time—just be sure to bring umbrellas for the walk!
    • Want to get outside and enjoy the rain while doing a little more than just walking? Then act like kids for a day! Splash around in puddles with your partner, or even start dancing in the rain.

    Meeting up at a bar is a classic date idea because it’s simple, super easy, and a low-pressure activity for you and your partner. First, make a list of the bars in your area; decide which one to visit first and which ones to visit next. Then, start your bar crawl! Have a drink at each bar and chat for a while before moving to the next until you’ve sampled drinks all across town.
    • Remember to take a taxi or plan out a route that’s easily walkable for you since both of you will likely be drinking alcohol.

    What’s better for relaxation than a deep massage? If you and your partner are looking for a little pampering on your next date, book a couple’s massage for the pair of you at a local spa. Or, if you’re looking to save a little money, stay home and give one another sensual and romantic massages instead.
    • If you stay home, don’t forget to create a romantic ambiance first! Put clean sheets and soft pillows on the bed (since it’s easiest to give a massage when your partner is lying down), dim the lights, and play soothing music.
    • Try stocking up on things like massage oil and eye masks to create an authentic at-home spa experience.

Cut the paper into smaller slips, and between you and your partner, write down a favorite memory from your relationship on each slip. When you’re done, throw all the slips of paper into the jar—and voila, you’ve got a memory jar! Pull a slip out anytime either of you wants to reminisce about the memories you share.

    The great thing about doing karaoke is that it doesn’t matter if you’re an amazing singer or you can’t hold a single tune—it’s all about getting up there and belting your heart out! Head to a karaoke bar with your partner, or rent a private room if you prefer singing without an audience. Sing all of your favorite songs, and don’t forget to add a few romantic duets to your queue as well.

    Check out the local booze scene to see if there’s a winery in your area. Plenty of wineries host wine-tasting events and tours, which can both be great ways to spend a rainy day! Try some new wines with your partner—and, if there’s one you both really love, bring home a bottle to share together afterward.
    • If wine isn’t your drink of choice, local breweries or distilleries also often host tours. Check them out and see if there’s an upcoming tour that works for you and your partner.

    Are blanket forts childish? Maybe a little, but there’s nothing wrong with that! Once you and your partner build your blanket fort , pile it full of comfy pillows (and a few extra blankets) to lay on and spend the day there. Play a few card or board games, watch shows on a laptop, or just curl up together and nap. Rainy days are perfect for rest and relaxation. [6]

    Want a fun and easy getaway without paying for an entire out-of-town vacation? Then try a staycation instead! Book a room at a local hotel and spend a night (or two, if you have a free weekend) with your partner. Relax, order room service, and be sure to take advantage if the hotel has an indoor pool—or any other amenities.
    • Alternatively, if there are any neighboring towns or cities within a couple of hours' driving distance from you, go on a romantic overnight trip with your partner.
