The end of the year might mark the “silly season,” but it’s more about the magic with the kids than the adult party antics when you’re a mom. However, if you do get a sitter for one night this season, there are dozens of great “grown-up” things you can be doing! So, have a little fun at the end of the year. Try one of these ideas to enjoy your night off from the kids:
Party
When the kids were young, you probably had to decline every party invite going. But if your children are a little older now, why not say yes to one or two? Getting a sitter is easier and more comfortable when children reach school age. You know their routines are going to be settled. And you feel less worried about things happening in your absence. Now all you need is a killer party dress and a new pair of shoes!
Alcohol
Obviously, it’s never a good idea to drink around the kids. And most drinking holes wouldn’t let your kids in with you anyway! But while you’re in “adult” mode and the kids are being cared for by someone else, you can enjoy a little tipple or two. You might try out a new cocktail that you’ve never had before. Of course, you could even try a wine tasting evening like those at http://hermannwinetrail.com/holiday-fare-wine-trail/. Or maybe even a glass of champagne to celebrate the end of a great year.
Dinner
When was the last time you sat in a restaurant and didn’t have to cut up someone else’s food? You can enjoy more intimate conversation without the constant interruptions of your jealous little one too. It is certainly worth a night out for! Choose a restaurant you haven’t been to for a while. Or why not try out a new one that’s high up on the critic’s list? Spoil yourself, indulge your tummy, and make it a wonderful dinner for two.
VIP Events
Getting tickets for THE event of the year is an achievement in itself. But if you can get the babysitter in for the night as well, then you are sure to enjoy yourself! Make it a night to remember with a chauffeur-driven limousine and a gaggle of great girlfriends to go with you. Book a hotel suite, so the night doesn’t have to end, and it can be as wild as you like. You can find choices at websites like http://offers-en.besthoteloffers.net/ Why not pick up some backstage passes and enjoy all the privileges that go with it!
Karaoke
Most karaoke bars are strictly adults only so chances are you’ve been missing out for a while. And karaoke is always much more fun in groups. Now is the time to exercise your vocal cords and belt out a big hit. You can choose karaoke with a stage and an audience, or go for a private booth where you can even record your track to take home with you. Best of all, you can really go for it without worrying about your kids looking embarrassed! What will you do on your night out?
