* Start a small garden: You could start it in your backyard or in your balcony. Get different types of plants. The more color, the better, right?
* Read: Reading has been known to be a great habit, since ages. So why not use it as a weapon to kill time? Read books that interest you and that will increase your knowledge base. You could even read text books of subjects that interest you.
* Yoga: Yoga can rejuvenate your mind and help you 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.
Hobbies for men at home
Men are known to be hyper-active and often need to be doing something. If, for any reason, you (the man) need to be at home for a long time, you are bound to need some recreation in the form of hobbies at home.
* Ticket Collection: In case, you travel by the subway often, collect the subway tickets. You could do this collection with any type of tickets. Gather them and sort them on the basis of the first digit 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 house that need to be repaired and maintained. Being the man of the house, you can spend your spare time doing that. This way, you would not only be using your time effectively, but saving money that you would need to pay if you hired someone to come and do those jobs.
* 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-delicious food. Either ways, with practice, who knows? You could be the next Jamie Oliver
