After being married to someone for awhile and you have children, you tend to get lost in everything else you have to do and forget about fun times with your spouse - what are some ideas of activities that we can do together to get to know one another all over again?

Walks, picnics, rent movies, send the kids to a relatives for the weekend and enjoy the privacy of your home for a couple of days, role play, be exploitative with each other... etc ...

Take a picnic basket and blanket to the lake or simply go for a walk on the hiking trail. Find a private spot and sit on the blanket looking at the trees. It's a great way to get the communication going, because there are no distractions. It can also be very relaxing and romantic, just looking at the clouds.

My husband does little things for me. Were both active adults so one day after work (we get home at the same time) He told me to put on a pair of shorts a t-shirt and some tennies we droped the baby off at my moms and we went to the golfing range. Ive never played golf and he has so he taught me how to swing. It was a blast.And the ranges usually stay open till around nine or ten so it works out if you have kids. it was romantic in a corny cheesy sort of way. Also My husband suprised me on saturday by taking me iceskating for the first time. I was a natural at it of course and my hubby fell twice ""on purpose"" its things like that which make you feel connected to your partner.

There are many things you can do. You could go on a picnic in the park for one. Anything that you BOTH enjoy doing would be rewarding. Even a romatic candlelit dinner at home while the kids are away would give you the time you need to reconnect.

Go out on fun dates--get icecream together, go for a walk in the park, after the kids go to bed watch a romantic movie and order a pizza, play games together, go on a picnic. Write eachother a love note and hide it for the other to find.

It depends on where you live. I live in the D.C. area and the museums are free. Parking, however is not. Your city might have a web site that you can look up. Why not find out if one of the local parks has a free movie night or music in the park. Putt putt golf is one of my fav's along with bowling. Competitive stuff can be good sometimes.

Me and my husband both have Harley's so we take a lot of rides together. We also take our dogs to the dog park, it gives you time to chat while watching the dogs play. We rent movies and go out to dinner with other couples and alone. When he's working on the bike or outside I help him, it's a chance for us to spend time together, plus he likes to teach me stuff and I am interested in learning about what he does and like to do

You can have a picnic in the park, and have on a trench coat, with nothing on. You can cook him a nice candlelight dinner, and different from the usual menu you serve. or go to the florist and buy some rose petals, put on a white covering on your bed, with the rose petals all on the bed, and have candles all around the room. Go to a movie, and have a coat on, and that is all, while you are their, just pull his hand over. and smile.

You could just do simple things like go play miniature golf together, have a picnic, or me and my husband go to the adult store and just have a great laugh about all of the freaky toys that are available.

Try taking a class together in a community college near you - swimming, dancing, pottery, painting, whatever it is you both are interested in. This will give you a scheduled time to "get out" and do something together.
