Not quite sure what to do with your significant other this Valentine's Day? Forget Netflix and Chill, here are 7 out-of-the-box ideas of how to surprise, and spend the day with your loved one!
1. Go-karting
If a sit down lunch is not for you and your partner, why not try go-karting? You’re bound to have an awesome and adrenaline-packed day, regardless of whether you bring your date or some of your closest friends. This date idea will surely leave you with a ton of hilarious memories, making it truly unforgettable. You can’t go wrong with this one!
2. Go on a picnic
This one will require a little more effort, but it’ll certainly be worth it! Cook up your date’s favourite meal, grab a blanket, and head to a nearby park (or even your backyard) for a romantic picnic. If you’re slightly worried about this going wrong, just remember: there is no such thing as a bad picnic! Even if it does go awry, your date will surely appreciate the effort you put into this cute idea.
3. Jump Yard
A trampoline park (yep, it’s exactly what you’re thinking - a room full of trampolines) has just opened up in Manila! It's PHP 350 per person for an hour and is located in Pasig. This idea is perfect if you’re a little nervous about your date, because it’ll definitely break the ice and you’ll have an unforgettable time the second you enter. Warning: jumping around for an hour is a lot more tiring that it may sound, so afterwards, why not hit up a nearby cafe to relax and wind down?
4. Paint-Balling
This date is definitely for you adrenaline junkies out there! Take your date to a nearby paintball field (you could check out Global Gutz Paintball located in Taguig). We advise that you bring a group of friends along so that you can split up into teams and go against people you already know. However, asking your date may take some convincing, so it might be a good idea to ask them first. Also, we know what you're thinking: If this is with friends, how is it still a date? Well, call it a double (or triple, or however many) date!
5. Baking
A little typical and cheesy, but it will always be a classic date idea! This is a great idea if you can’t leave your house. Stay at home with your date and bake anything: a cake, cookies, cupcakes; you can check out Buzzfeed’s food section for some creative and delicious ideas! The best part about this is that you’ll have something (hopefully) mouth-watering to eat for when you’re done.
6. Fort making
Another classic. Gather a bunch of blankets, some pillows (just about anything soft) and create a cosy little (or big) fort with your date! You’re sure to have lots of laughs while making it, and you’ll never be disappointed with the end look of your fort, trust me! If you’re a little unsure, try researching forts on Pinterest or Tumblr for some cool ideas. Once you’re done, grab a load of snacks and watch some cute movies, inside the fort, together.
7. Cat Café
This one’s strictly for cat lovers only! There’s an adorable little cat cafe located in Quezon City and it’s the perfect date if you and your partner adore these little furry animals! Enjoy a wide range of snacks and drinks while simultaneously playing with the adorable and friendly cats in the cafe (check out catcafemanila.com for more details).
