Kids in the House? Keep the Spark Alive Anyway! 🔥
Let’s talk about something nobody puts in the parenting handbook:
How the heck are we supposed to have a fun, exciting intimate relationship when there are CHILDREN EVERYWHERE?!
There’s the kid who needs a snack.
The kid who forgot their homework.
The kid who suddenly has a very important question about dinosaurs at 10:47 p.m.
And then there’s you, standing in the bedroom thinking…
“I love you, but I am SO tired.” 😂
If intimacy has started feeling more like another chore on your already-too-long to-do list, you're not alone.
But here’s the good news:
It doesn't have to stay that way.
Stop Waiting for the Perfect Moment
If you have kids, you're probably already laughing at the idea of a perfectly spontaneous romantic evening.
Spontaneous?
With children?
Cute.
Instead, sometimes you have to make the time.
And that doesn't make it boring or unromantic.
It means you're choosing to make your relationship important, too.
Maybe it's a date night after the kids go to bed.
Maybe it's sneaking away for a little alone time while they're visiting Grandma.
Maybe it's putting your phones away and actually reconnecting.
Or maybe it's saying:
“Tonight, we're doing something fun.”
That's enough.
When "Same Old, Same Old" Gets…Well…OLD
Here's a little secret:
You don't necessarily need a complete bedroom makeover.
Sometimes you just need to introduce a little curiosity.
Try a game.
Ask each other some fun questions.
Pick something new to explore together.
Add a blindfold.
Try a new lubricant.
An arousal cream can add a different sensation and make things feel a little less predictable.
And no, you don't have to turn your bedroom into a Hollywood production.
Sometimes a simple blindfold and a little imagination can be enough to make things feel completely different.
The point isn't to become somebody you're not.
It's to stop doing the exact same thing simply because that's what you've always done.
When Intimacy Starts Feeling Like a Chore
This is the part I really want you to hear:
You don't owe anyone sex.
But if you're noticing that intimacy has become something you're constantly checking off your list, it's worth asking yourself why.
Are you exhausted?
Are you carrying the mental load?
Are you disconnected from your partner?
Are you bored?
Have you stopped flirting?
Have you forgotten how to have fun together?
Sometimes the answer isn't "we need more sex."
Sometimes the answer is:
“We need to reconnect.”
Go on a date.
Laugh together.
Kiss longer.
Take a shower together.
Give each other a massage.
Play a game.
Talk about something other than the kids, bills, work and what's for dinner.
Remember the people you were before you became Mom and Dad.
They're still in there somewhere. ❤️
Make It Fun Again
Intimacy doesn't have to be serious.
In fact, I think we sometimes take it WAY too seriously.
Laugh.
Experiment.
Be curious.
Try something new.
And if something makes you both giggle instead of getting you in the mood?
Congratulations.
You've just created a memory. 😂
The goal isn't perfection.
The goal is connection, playfulness and enjoying each other again.
Need a Little Inspiration?
That's exactly why I love having a variety of products available at The Kim Show.
Sometimes you need a little help getting out of the same-old-same-old routine.
A fun game can give you something to talk about and laugh over.
A quality lubricant can make things more comfortable and enjoyable.
An arousal cream can add a little extra excitement.
A simple blindfold can turn an ordinary evening into something a little more intriguing.
You don't need a giant collection of toys or an elaborate plan.
Sometimes one little something new is all it takes to change the mood.
And that's what I love about what I do.
There is no judgment.
No pressure.
No “you have to try this.”
Just options.
You pick what feels fun and comfortable for you and your partner.
So, Mom. Dad. Busy Couple. Tired Human…
Put the laundry down.
Close the bedroom door.
Tell the kids you're busy for the next 30 minutes.
Okay…maybe don't actually tell them that last part. 😂
But seriously—make some time for the two of you.
Because your relationship deserves more than leftover time at the end of the day.
It deserves a little attention, a little laughter, and maybe a little fun. ❤️🔥
And if you need some inspiration, The Kim Show is here to help.
Come check out the games, lubricants, arousal creams, blindfolds and other fun products available through The Kim Show—or better yet, book a party and let's have some fun together!
Because sometimes the best thing you can add to your relationship…
is a little play. 😉
