There are more than a few activities in Fire Emblem Three Houses in which you can participate in. Each of the Fire Emblem Three Houses Free Days Activities grants you specific rewards that will help you in gameplay.
Fire Emblem Three Houses Free Days Activities
Here I will explain each of the Fire Emblem Three Houses Free Days Activities, how to unlock them, how to participate and compete, and what rewards you will earn from each of these activities.
Dining
In your free time in Fire Emblem Three Houses you can visit the dining hall to join students and faculty members. There are two dining events in which you can participate, Today’s Special and Full Menu.
Today’s Special has specific conditions that need to be fulfilled. On the other hand, Full Menu is a standard dining event. To participate in either of the dining events in Fire Emblem Three Houses, just talk to the Dining staff NPC in the dining hall.
Today’s Special
As I mentioned earlier, Today’s Special has specific conditions in order to participate like having one student or a faculty member dine with Byleth. Fulfill the requirement and you will be allowed to participate in Today’s Special dining event.
This event results in a better relationship with the ones that you chose to take with you. Also, no ingredients are required for this dining event.
Full Menu
In this dining event, you don’t need to fulfill any specific requirements. Just have the ingredients for the chosen meal and select with whom you want to dine with.
You can choose students to boost their morals, especially, the ones who are low on motivation. However, the bonds and motivation gains will be lower compared to Today’s Special.
Tea Party
This particular Free Day activity in Fire Emblem Three Houses requires you to celebrate birthdays in the monastery. Not only that, you need to select the proper topic of conversation for the character whose birthday you are celebrating.
Once the activity is done, you’ll receive support boost and possibly charm, it depends on your performance in the activity. But first, you need to unlock the activity.

However, if you choose the right answers all three times, you’ll have a fourth chance. Again, you need to choose the right topic of conversation.

Perfect Tea Party Bonus
