- Yoga: Yoga can rejuvenate your mind and help you to be more aware of what surrounds you. There are several videos available on the Internet or rental videos that you could watch to learn it well.
- Bonsai Creation: Plant bonsai and take care of them. They look great and you can really pamper them if you have time. Just get all the bonsai tree care instructions and start a miniature forest.
- Ticket Collection: In case you travel by the subway often, collect the subway tickets. You could carry through this collection with any type of tickets. Gather them and sort them on the basis of the first digit printed on them. You will be amazed at how much time you will kill doing this.
- Chess: Chess is a game that can be played even while you are by yourself. You use your mind while you try to beat yourself at a game. It sharpens your mind and gives you some thinking time.
- Repair Work: There are several things around the house that need to be repaired and maintained. Being the man of the house, you can spend your spare time doing that.

- Cooking: Cooking is an art. It needs precision and skill. Try your hand at it. The worst that will come out of it is that you will make less-than-perfect food. But then practice it often and you never know.
- Sewing: Sewing is a great hobby for stay-at-home moms as you can use your time making something that will be of direct use to you. For example, you don't need to buy clothes for your children, you can make them yourself.
- Knitting: Knitting, like stitching, is a very useful hobby. More so, because it takes up time and needs concentration. It is perfect to give you a feeling of accomplishment.
- Writing: All those stories that you made up for your children? Write them down and think of more. Who knows, somewhere down the line, you could get your writing published.
- Volunteer Work: Volunteer with charities and NGOs. It can be fun, fulfilling, and great if you are into networking. More so, it will be a good example for the children, as they will know the importance of working towards society.
