After play dates and endless nights of helping the kiddos do homework, it’s as if girls night out can’t get here quick enough!
But when it’s your turn to choose an activity, do you come up blank on what to do?
Sure, the easiest thing is to meet up for drinks and maybe dinner. But next time, surprise the girls by thinking outside the box.
Let’s look at 5 fun, yet different, things to do for girls night out.
1. Wine and Paint
Nothing like a little creativity mixed with a glass of red.
Studios have been popping up all over that offer affordable, fun painting classes. And they spice things up by serving adult beverages!
You and the girls will learn how to replicate original art pieces in a fun and laid-back environment. The bonus is you get to go home with a personalized piece of art. Plus, you can usually find coupons for classes on Groupon.
2. Cooking Class
Girls night out is about to get very yummy. Gather your group and take a cooking class together.
This time you’re in charge of what’s cooking in the kitchen. You don’t have to worry about heating up chicken nuggets for the kids, it’s all up to you.
Take that Italian pasta class you’ve always wanted to try. Or learn how to bake your favorite French pastries.
Splurge a bit by taking a private class together or find a local community class to save some money.
3. Escape Room
Feel like playing detective or secret agent instead? Escape rooms will give girls night out a spark of intrigue and adrenaline.
As a group, follow clues and break codes to solve a mystery. Escape rooms have several scenarios to choose from, including games like Operation: Casino Escape Room or Museum Heist.
It’s a fun group activity that allows you to work as a team while having fun at the same time.
4. Concert
Fill the night with music by going to a concert for a girls night out.
You can rock the night away with a nostalgic band you used to listen to before you had kids. It’s even better if everyone digs out their old concert t-shirts from back in the day to wear.
Or keep it classy with a night at the symphony. Everyone can dress up and follow up the concert with a nightcap of wine and dessert.
5. Slumber Party
Who says you have to go out for a fun night? Choose someone’s home or get a glam hotel room for a girls night IN.
Take slumbers parties from days gone by up a notch. This time around you’re allowed to bring wine, order in some gourmet food, and have a movie marathon of anything you want.
But it never hurts to bring back the classics. Playing Truth or Dare inside an awesome blanket fort never gets old.
