Posted on February 18, 2019 in 2019 Summer Gift Guide
I can’t go out much, because I deal with Panic Disorder. And, well, Valentine’s Day, and all the people, I couldn’t go out. So, we had a Valentine’s Date at home, with Crated With Love. It was so special. We started with the book that came with Crated With Love, so we knew what to do. Our box was Our Sweetheart Safari. It was so much fun, and super cute!
The book has challenges in it, so Challenge One was “Our Safari Skills”, Challenge Two: “Lions, Tigers and Bears”, Challenge Three: “Jungle River Excursion”, Challenge Four: “Our Goals Journal”. These are so cute, and so fun to do with the person you love, for a special day, or any day. We just picked Valentine’s Day, because my spouse knew I couldn’t be around all those people.
Why a Date Night, you may ask, well here’s the answer found on Crated With Love:
Couples that have dedicated “couple time” at least once a week are 3.5 times more likely to classify their marriage as “very happy” compared to those couples who enjoy less quality time together.
My daughter, age 21, and her boyfriend, age 22, even asked if they could borrow the Crated With Love box, before they became subscribers, to make sure they loved it too. Well, Saturday was their date night, and they loved it too.
So you have 40 something’s, and 20 something’s that both think Date Night is important!

We, in our household, love the Crated With Love Subscription Box. It’s so great to get fun activities, to share with each other, on a monthly basis. And, having two kids, ages 20 & 6, this is perfect for us. The kids go for dinner, and we have “Date Night”.
This month, it all started with a Puzzle, then with a few other activities. The puzzle was quite challenging, but got us thinking. Which, once a month, we need this. It was a wonderful time, with my wonderful spouse.
This really was a great night. And, I subscribed for only $26.99 a month. There are bigger boxes, but we went with the middle box, to start off with. We have access to buy additional items, at a discounted price, if we’d like. And there is an even more advanced box, for $59.99, one time cost.
You will really enjoy your date night, like we did. It gets you acquainted with each other again. And, finding Likes and Dislikes.
We’ve been together for 13 years, and Stephanie already had a young daughter when we met. Now we have a young son. So a date night, once a month, is a great thing. And we can trust Sarah to take care of her brother. We send them to dinner, and gramma’s house. Gramma loves that, but it gives us a few hours to get reacquainted with one another. And, once a month isn’t being selfish.
I can’t wait until our December box. We will be saving it for Christmas Eve, when the kids go to bed. It will be our Christmas gift to each other.
The Crated With Love Box has really made a significant, and positive, change in our relationship. It’s getting to know each other again!
