o   Go the local railroad tracks and put down a bunch of pennies. Spend time talking or drinking hot chocolate while you wait for the train to pass. At the end of the night you will have penny souvenirs to remember the evening by.
o   Have a competition to design a protective package for an unboiled egg. You cannot spend more than $1 on supplies. Then see whose egg can be dropped from a pre-determined height without breaking. Make up a certificate for the winner.
o   Five couples, each couple had to be tied together in some way (at the wrist or the ankle, etc.) Each individual person had a different disability that he/she picked out of a hat at the beginning of the date (blind, missing an arm, no fingers, etc.). Each person helped make a certain stage of the meal. 
o   "Write down different favorite places to eat on individual pieces of paper. Put them into a container. Write down different meal courses (i.e. appetizer, soup, salad, main meal, dessert, etc.) on individual pieces of paper. Put them into a second container. Take turns, selecting first a location, then a course. You may have an appetizer at Baskin Robbins, soup at a Chinese restaurant, salad at McDonalds, main course at Taco Bell, dessert at Subway, etc.
o   Take them to different places that are selling kittens or puppies that you found previously in the classifieds of your newspaper. (American Bulldog if Sean is listening.) Let them pick out their favorite one.
o   Make a trophy for game nights. Who wouldn't want to win a personalized game night token.
