Happy Friday: Amazing Date Night
Sent from reader, Tera:
Hey Collin and team, I thought you might get a kick out of this–while our family was visiting my husband’s sister recently, she planned this super fun “Amazing Date” for my husband and me, complete with route info, money for each leg of the race (she used monopoly money), a fast forward, and detours to complete. She planned about 5 stops around my husband’s home town, including dinner and dessert (and yes, she included some coupons for us to use!), and we had to search for our next clue at each location. We had a blast, and did some fun things we wouldn’t have thought to do on our own!
HAPPY FRIDAY!

I would love more details about this, about what the cards would say, etc. so I could plan one. Thanks!
In the email that Tera sent me, she mentioned that her sister-in-law used this site to create the clues:

Hope this helps! 😀
Collin and Tera, Thanks for sharing this! I visited the link and saw the kids version. My husband is a cub scout leader so I can’t wait to share this with him. What a GREAT activity for the boys to do on a camping trip!!! Or an awesome and budget friendly birthday party idea!
