Unique at Home Date Night Ideas in Lockdown


By Annie Symonds

Looking for some truly unique at home date night ideas in lockdown? Finding new and creative ideas to keep things exciting when you’re in a relationship can be hard enough. Throw in trying to find indoors activities in lockdown, and it can be almost impossible to come up with the goods! 

There’s only so much any couple can take from sitting on the sofa watching TV every night. If you’re looking for ways to connect and spend quality time together, our unique virtual classes with craft kits will help you not only reconnect again, you’ll feel much more connected within yourself too. 

Whilst you might not be able to go for a nice dinner or pop to the pub after work, we’ve got some excellent creative at home date ideas to help you create some fun memories with your loved one. Our online date ideas will even help couples thrive when they’re not living together as well so you don’t need to be living in the same house or flat to try our art experiences. 

Our online classes and art kits have been designed to help you make the most of spending more time at home. When you’re looking for things for couples to do at home, simply search our ever-growing list of amazing online art classes to choose from. Whilst many people put off starting hobbies or doing things they know will make them happier, it’s time to carve out a small part of your time and dedicate it to leading a healthier and happier life with your loved one. Our virtual classes have been known to kick start people’s hobbies and give them a new lease of life and we hope this article inspires you to do the same too. 

Try an online paint and sip class

The best thing about trying an online paint and sip class is that it’s supposed to be about having fun. Don’t worry about being a professional painter, we don’t even expect you to have ever picked up a paintbrush before! This painting class online will have you and your loved one in stitches as you learn to paint a masterpiece to hang in your very own home. It may even spark a new creative side to take on more online painting classes in the future! 

Painting is a fantastic form of meditation as you can switch off from daily life and enjoy the relaxing nature of it in your own home. If you’re looking to jump out of your comfort zone and try new things to do at home, our virtual paint and sip classes could be just what you’re looking for. 

Don’t have any paints? You don’t need any materials or tools to do a sip and paint class because we’ll provide it all for you. All you need to do is decide which paint and drink class you’d like to do and we’ll sort out the rest. We’ll deliver a beautifully made craft box which includes your DIY paint & sip kit to your front door before the class starts. Then you’ll need to log on via Zoom to join the class and the British expert painter who will teach you everything you need to know about painting. And let’s not forget you’ll be doing this with a glass of vino on the other hand of course! At the end of the class, compare your painting with your loved one’s regardless of whether they are on Zoom or sitting next to you!

Take part in a couple’s online cooking class

Maybe you’re used to eating out a lot, but trying an online cooking class could be a fantastic way to spice things up between you and your loved one. It’s a proven fact that cooking classes are hugely beneficial for your health. Obviously cooking at home will be healthier for you because you’ll know what is exactly in your meals, but it’s also good for your mental health too. Not only are you learning to make things at home which is really satisfying in itself, but you also have to use your brain to follow the recipe, and make sure you stick to timings so it will all come together. Keeping your brain active and focussed will stop you from feeling sluggish and will leave you feeling happier. 

When you take our virtual cooking class, you and your loved one will have to work together to cook the amazing restaurant-worthy meal waiting for you at the end. Our live streaming cooking classes are a fun way to bring you together to enjoy spending time in the kitchen. When you taste what you’ve created at the end of the class, we’re sure you’ll be signing up for the next one! 

Don’t worry about sourcing the ingredients as we’ll send you a beautiful DIY cooking kit to your front door! Our British local cooking teacher will be waiting on the other end of the Zoom call to guide you throughout the lesson.
