We’ve gathered 45 unique stay at home activities by Enneagram Type. If you’re looking for something to do while you’re stuck safe at home, we’ve curated a list of activities just for your type.
At the time we published this post, we’ve been in social isolation and Stay at Home/Shelter in Place orders now for over a month thanks to COVID-19. And by this time, you’ve probably played every game, watched all your favorite movies, have finished and maybe rewatched the train wreck that is Tiger King, and scrolled through hours of social media. It’s time to shake things up, so we’ve put together a list of activities for each Enneagram type that you can do while you’re bunkered down in your home.
We made sure to consider what each Enneagram Type enjoys, what motivates each type, and tried to make our suggestions broad enough to give room to your unique preferences. If you want to explore other posts unique to your type, check out our 27 of the best Board and Party Games by Enneagram Type.

This book of poetry and prose explores real life emotions of love and loss. A great read and reminder for the typically busy Enneagram 2’s.
Team3
Team3 is a cooperative team game where players are given a certain role, and must work together to build a structure. This game requires good helpers, and we believe Enneagram Two’s are exactly who we need.
Bread Baking for Beginners
One of our favorite Enneagram 2’s looooooves to bake on her snow days. She puts all the love she typically would in a work-day into kneading breads, scones, and feel-goodies. If you haven’t tried your hand at making fresh bread, now’s your chance.

Herb Garden Kit
Some people create art, others master gardens. All are welcome, and all are needed. Encourage the green thumb of the Enneagram 3, and maybe you’ll get invited to eat from their bounty.
The Chameleon
There is a secret word, and everyone knows it BUT the Chameleon. Can you blend in, or will you get caught? It’s a great large group game that encourages an ability to hide in plain sight.
The Year of You
We’d like to invite you to discover more about yourself, become more conscious about what you want, and create a rich and fulfilling life through one journaling prompt a day. If you’ve ever wondered who you are outside of a workday, now is the time to explore it.
The Lie Detector Game
This game includes a working lie-detector with voice analysis. Players in the hot seat are asked questions with the goal to catch them in a lie. Being honest, or outsmarting the detector, wins the game. Lights and sound reveal the truth.
Oh, and just in case this game makes anyone nervous, it comes with 126 questions if the blank questions are too risky.

Tequila Mockingbird Cocktail Book
It’s a little bit of literature and a little bit of fun all mixed into this cocktail cookbook featuring drink recipes paired with commentary on historical classics.
I Should Have Known That!
Unlike ridiculously hard trivia games that intimidate most of us, this trivia game is filled with everyday questions like: What is the character limit for Tweets on Twitter? How long did Sleeping Beauty actually sleep? But you’re not rewarded in this game for answering questions correctly–instead you lose points for incorrect answers that you probably should have known. If we can have teams, put an Enneagram 5 on ours.
Hammock Chair
You’ve read all the books. You’ve watched all the Youtube videos. You’re probably not even halfway through your list. So grab a new hammock chair and change up the view as you absorb all the information you’ve been craving.
Fire in the Library Game

Enneagram Seven
Concept
Creativity, imagination, and problem solving–no we’re not explaining a typical Enneagram 7, but the game Concept. Play cooperatively or semi-cooperatively to share clues similar to Charades, but with images on the game board. Don’t worry, the points are far less important than having a great time, which is a Enneagram 7’s motto.
New Phone, Who Dis?
Compete to create the funniest text message thread, which means you have to think fast and funny. A great group game for any spontaneous party night.
