Crochet, calligraphy and crosswords are picking up in popularity as people increasingly stay home - but computer games are by far the biggest winner.
Analysis of Kiwis' Google activity found there was a 400 per cent surge in searches for computer games in March compared to the same month last year.
Searches for online games also shot up 223 per cent while interest in board games jumped by 355 per cent, according to the research carried out by e-commerce company Picodi.
Self-improvement activities have also been popular, with searches for online courses, such as Udemy, up by 133 per cent. Picodi's analysis department speculated that the uncertainty in the labour market had made internet users look for opportunities to seek extra qualifications.
