Rage rooms
What’s more cathartic than breaking a few plates, smashing a tv, or taking a bat to a computer? This is a great activity if you or your partner have had a stressful week and want a fun way to let out some steam, or if you’re both looking for something exciting to try to get that adrenaline flowing!
