Valentine’s day often has a bad reputation for being a cheesy, overdone holiday. But you don’t have to let your Valentine’s Day be that way.
We encourage you to set aside this day to celebrate your relationships with others and love.
Since we know that sometimes it’s hard to think of new ways to say “I love you” to your special man, we decided to write a short list to help spark some fun ideas.
1- Invest in His Interests
All good relationships are built on communication and now it’s your time to work on your listening skills. Find out more about your man’s passions and hobbies by turning your listening ears on 100%. You may be surprised at what you learn!
Take this new knowledge and plan a fun activity or meal to surprise your man. Maybe you can brush up on your hunting knowledge and have a knowledgeable conversation on what he enjoys. You could even pack him a special meal for his next hunting trip. Perhaps you can treat him to a competition in his favorite sport or video game.
The options are endless; he just wants to know you care.
It’ll delight him to know that you have been listening to his thoughts and care enough to plan something he’ll love.
2- Plan a Relaxing Getaway
Let the stress of the holidays and New Year fade away in the distance as the two of you take off to a surprise getaway. Planning a relaxing getaway for your man is the perfect way to show him you value how hard he works for you and your family.
Tip: Chose a place that will refresh and renew him, a place that he’ll love. Everyone needs a break sometime; don’t expect your Superman to be saving all the cities without a little time to have fun too.
Whether you sweep him away to the mountains for a wilderness hike or to the shore for some beach-therapy, make sure you pick a place that he loves to go!
3- Give a Creative Gift
While it’s not necessary to give your man a Valentines’ day gift, surprising him with a specially chosen gift will make him feel both loved and known—the perfect combination!
For example, you could treat his sweet tooth to a surprise: a handcrafted Candy Dispenser. Built from durable solid wood, this fun gift also features a plastic quart jar, whose top easily opens for convenient refilling.
Tip: Be sure to fill it with his favorite treats beforehand so that both his gift and smile is complete.
Or you could give him a gift that is both practical and fun, just like your man!
This maintenance-free Poly Folding Adirondack Chair is ideal for unwinding in the great outdoors, like the relaxing getaway you’re planning.
It even folds conveniently for easy transportation and storage.
Maybe a lawn decoration is more his style. Surprise your adventurous man with a solar Poly Lighthouse to greet him home day or night.
The Poly Lighthouses’ solar design allows it to collect and conserve the sun’s rays during the day in preparation to shine its 25 watt light during the night.
