Scavenger Hunt at the Local Library



Plan a romantic getaway night by going to your local bookstore. Make a list of things for you and your spouse to search for, such as:  
  • A yummy recipe you want to make for your spouse
  • A place you want to travel
  • A quote or poem that reminds you of your spouse
  • A kid's book you loved to read growing up
  • A new hobby or activity that you think your spouse would enjoy
  • Something that represents what you love most about your spouse
This fun free date can bring laugher, maybe even tears, back to your relationship.  
Good luck and have fun with it!

Relationship Reconnection:
At the end of the date ask your spouse what they loved most about the activity and why.  Then, share what you loved the most.  Being a good listener is essential to reconnect with your spouse and remember why you fell in love with them in the first place.

There is nothing quite like a visit to a farmers market.  Well, how about visiting a local, permanent, 20,000 sq. ft. farmers market that is boasting the freshest and finest produce available.  This produce is not only the best, it's also sold for the lowest price possible.  You can shop around for produce or just walk around and see what's in season.

Relationship Reconnection:

On this date, it's time to really practice tolerance and compassion.  One way to do this is by opening up to each other and really listening. Allow one another to express their emotions without judging or trying to fix things.  Simply listen and try to understand. Rather than being reactive, just listen with an empathetic ear.  As you both practice this, you'll begin to focus on each other more and really reconnect.
