What if you want to do something different but don&#8217;t know where to start? Keep things fun and interesting with these unconventional date ideas for your special Valentine! These ideas will work well for any occasion, and can be customized to the personality of your special someone. Some of these are also great for friends or even colleagues, since the day is for appreciating all kinds of love! So, whether you&#8217;re with your romantic love, your platonic love or your familial love, we hope you\u00a0make new and wonderful memories on this upcoming Valentine&#8217;s Day.<\/p>\n<h3>Dinner In<\/h3>\n<p>With a twist. Have you ever hired a personal chef for one meal? It&#8217;s both a learning experience &amp; a private affair! Rates in Toronto begin at $50 an hour but consider it this way, you don&#8217;t have to leave the comfort of your own home (which can be really enticing if it&#8217;s snowy out). This is a great option whether it&#8217;s with your sweetheart or a bunch of your friends. Kick back, relax and watch the culinary show.<\/p>\n<h3>Or, Take A Cooking Class<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupon.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Groupon<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livingsocial.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LivingSocial<\/a> are loaded with affordable cooking classes, whether it&#8217;s a one-time thing or several sessions. Is there something you&#8217;re dying to learn to make? Regardless of your culinary skill level, a cooking class with your significant other is definitely a different take on the whole &#8220;dinner out&#8221; experience.<\/p>\n<h3>A Special Scavenger Hunt<\/h3>\n<p>Depending on who you do this with, special places to leave mementos or cute notes could be the place you first met, where you went on your first date, where you had your first kiss, etc. End the hunt with dinner or anything else on this list!<\/p>\n<h3>Play<\/h3>\n<p>Be ridiculous for a night. Find a playground and swing until you&#8217;re dizzy. Grab a basketball and play on a snowy court. There&#8217;s no better stress relief than doing something that&#8217;s both physically active &amp; a huge change of what you&#8217;d normally do. Give your mind a break and let out that inner goofball. Those who laugh together&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>Do Something Good<\/h3>\n<p>Volunteer together, whether it&#8217;s for the day or maybe find a cause you both want to support &amp; sign up. The world goes &#8217;round with the kind of love and effort volunteers put in every day, so there&#8217;s no better day to join an important cause than today.<\/p>\n<h3>Take a Dance Class<\/h3>\n<p>This is definitely more couple oriented, but can be a hilarious time between friends as well given the right sense of humour. Check out Groupon to see what dance studios are offering one-time classes in your area and salsa your way through the night.<\/p>\n<h3>Get Scared<\/h3>\n<p>Adrenaline anyone? Do something that makes your blood pumping! Whether it&#8217;s going sky-diving or watching horror game Let&#8217;s Plays on YouTube, pick an event that will leave you with amazing (and probably hilarious) memories.<\/p>\n<h3>Working at Night?<\/h3>\n<p>Plan a day-date! Surprise your special someone for lunch. Take them to their favourite place and, weather &amp; time permitting, have a nice romantic stroll.<\/p>\n<h3>Have a 1 Day Stay-Cation<\/h3>\n<p>Winter is rough &amp; with many weeks remaining until spring, many are in need of some serious R&amp;R. What a better place to do that than to get cozy in your own diggs? The day doesn&#8217;t have to be glamorous if you don&#8217;t want it to be. You choose what makes it special, and if that&#8217;s your favourite line up of movies you saw on dates together with a pizza from your favourite parlour, then do it up.<\/p>\n<h3>Go To A Museum or Art Gallery<\/h3>\n<p>Especially if it&#8217;s not your thing but your significant other\/friend will like it. The gesture is a simple way to show you care, and you could learn a lot more about who you&#8217;re with by watching them engage with something they love.<\/p>\n<h3>Beer Tasting<\/h3>\n<p>Sure, sure, wine tours are probably a popular thing during this season, but what about visiting a special ale house? Expand your pallet with interesting new beers that you&#8217;d never otherwise bat an eyelash at. Make a list of your top 3 &amp; purchase a pack on your next date\/outing. It&#8217;s a new memory!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>What&#8217;s your favourite unconventional Valentine&#8217;s Day activity?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Short Term Loans Online Dinner &amp; a movie is a typical date, but they&#8217;re also two events that tend to also happen a lot on Valentine&#8217;s Day.
