Sure staying inside, cozying up with your significant other binge watching Netflix series may seem alluring after your tough semester, but don't let the cold put a freeze on the fun of your date nights!

1. Ice Skating, Tubing, or Skiing.

2. Take a mini vacation.

If you can afford it, take a few days to go some place warm. If that's not in your budget, take a weekend to explore a city not too far away. Suggestion if you're in New York, Lake Placid is a cutesy small town with plenty of stories. Still too far? Book a night or two at a nearby hotel! Just make sure there's a hot tub first!

3. Plan a series of coffee dates to small cafés in your area that you usually overlook.

4. Build a snowman or snow woman then end with a snowball fight.

5. Winter Wonderland photo shoot.

6. Paint with a Twist.

7. Museums and other indoor adventures.

Think aquariums, indoor botanical gardens, and indoor rope courses! Maybe even try bowling! Depending on the place, prices should be fairly low.

8. Switch it up!

Rather than heading to your local cinema to catch the new releases, try a play or musical instead!

9. Pitch a tent - indoors!

No tent? No problem! Make a fort out of sheets, chairs, string, command hooks, whatever! Finish the fort with string lights, movies, hot chocolate, and plenty of snacks!
