How to use the February birthday ideas

  1. 1

    Spin first, then choose a date away from the 14th, when restaurants and entertainment venues are booked solid.

  2. 2

    If the birthday falls on a weekday, plan the main event for the nearest weekend and keep the day itself for a small treat.

  3. 3

    For a leap-day birthday, spin every year for the small version and save the big idea for the years when the date really exists.

Ways to use this wheel

  • Anti-Valentine night: the murder mystery or comedy club turns a couples-heavy month into a group celebration.
  • Sweet tooth tour: map three dessert shops and let the birthday person choose the order by spinning again.

A February birthday that is not just Valentine’s Day

February birthdays can get lost around Valentine’s Day. The wheel offers plans with their own character: a chocolate tasting and dessert crawl, vintage bowling and arcade, a murder mystery dinner or a fireplace fondue night. Spin to choose, then book a different day than the 14th if restaurants are packed.

February’s birthstone is the amethyst, and its flowers are the violet and the primrose. Purple is an easy theme for decorations and cakes.

Leap day and zodiac notes

The shortest month has the rarest birthday, February 29, which comes once every four years. People born in February are Aquarians until about the 18th and Pisces after that. If you are planning for a leap-day birthday, make the real day a big deal in leap years.
