Top Date-Night Ideas for Busy Mothers


Moms are everyday superheroes. Raising a child is a full-time profession, and many moms need to juggle that job with a career of their own to support their family. Between your child and your work, you might find that you have no time for yourself, much less for you and your partner. Letting the romance in your relationship die is not something anyone wants, which is why you need to schedule it in. Make your relationship a priority – at least for one evening. Once you have that date night scheduled, fill it with any of these amazing date-night ideas:

  1. Dinner and a Show
One of the most romantic things a couple can do is go to dinner and then to a show. The reason why this date is especially perfect for busy moms is that it allows you to have quality time with your hubby, and then enjoy and relax while you watch a live performance. To make the most out of this date idea, get a subscription to see multiple Broadway shows so you plan many date nights of the future.  

  1. Dancing
Sometimes, you just need to let down your hair. This date is great for the new moms who loved the party scene, or even moms who just enjoy dancing with their partner. Whatever kind of dancing and music you are interested in, you’ll be able to find it at a club or event near you. Dancing together is great for your health and for your relationship.

  1. Take a Class Together
A couple that learns together, stays together. Learn something new that you are both interested in and benefit from the new stimulus and from the bonding. There are many community classes available that occur on a weekly basis so that you can schedule a babysitter for the same time for however many weeks in advance.
  1. The Sleepover
The last suggestion for a perfect date night is not to go out at all. Instead, have a family member or even a friend take your children for a sleepover at theirs. Use this time to pull out all the stops. Make a romantic meal together, have rose petals on the bed, candles lit, music in the air – whatever brings out the romance between you and your partner. Try to put effort into your stay-in dates. You want them to be special, romantic, and you want them to ignite your relationship.

Keep your date night on the same day at the same day, and try to have the same babysitter, and your child will adapt and become accustomed to the new routine. They will be safe, and happy, and you can have your date night without worry. The secret to having a date-night when you are a busy mom is to schedule your dates ahead of time and prioritize that one day. Your children will always come first, but they’ll be in great hands for the few hours you need to keep your relationship strong and healthy.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way.
