Mom and Son Date Day Ideas

As a Mom of three boys, life is crazy. So I’m trying to be better about setting time aside for each of them. I’m sharing Mom and Son Date Day Ideas that will fill everyone’s love bucket!

Mom and Son Date Day Ideas

Time is a thief. We are in the summer of 2022 and I watch all three boys playing together outside. Well, occasional playing, some arguing and a good amount of tantrums. Yup, we are an average family over here. What I lose sight of is that I never really spend time with each individual boy, especially with the older two in school. So I wanted to gather a list of Mom and Son Day Date Ideas that everyone will love.

Outdoor Activities

Now that it’s summer, we spend so much time outdoors. Typically we are together as a family, but I think it’s important to do fun date days with each of them. Here are a few ideas for ages 2 to 6 to spend time outdoors.

Go play Golf
Go play Tennis (Elliott’s favorite!)
Water Balloon Fight
Go for a Hike
Visit a local beach, have lunch and walk the shoreline.
Take a bike ride
Pool day
Lemonade stand
Take a walk for ice cream
Walk the dogs
Visit the zoo
Go fruit picking
Have a picnic in the park
Local Splash park

Indoor Activities

Rainy weather can make the days seem so long. If you’re able to set aside time, think about what you can do indoors to build a special bond! A few indoor day date ideas include;

Build a pillow fort
Movie and popcorn
Make slime
Play a card game
Bake cookies
Work on a puzzle (Oliver loves this!)
Have a dance party
Build Legos
Play “I Spy”
Grab cardboard boxes to color
Visit the local library
Go to the gym together!

Travel

We’ve been traveling so much lately as a family, but I had the opportunity to travel with my oldest in March. We had so much fun just the two of us. He still talks about it months later! It grew our relationship and I was able to see how much my little boy has grown. Cue the tears! Check out these travel day date ideas:
