Life would be very boring without hobbies; we would appear like robots, without feelings, like color blind creatures, like aliens on our own planet. Hobbies give sense to our existence.
1. When we are small children, our hobbies may be:
- Playing computer games: there are kids who don’t do to the kitchen for eating, they ask for their food to be taken in front of the computer, and they are terribly angry if somebody disturbs them when they play a game
- Watching cartoons: a lot of kids watch cartoons so that they learn their replicas by heart. Cartoons which lead to hobbies are Disney ones and recently Scooby-Doo.
- Taking up different sports: football, handball, basketball, gymnastics, volleyball
- Playing a musical instrument: piano, guitar
- Looking after a pet: cat, dog, hamster, fish, parrot
- Horse riding
- Collecting things: stamps, badges, postcards, pens
2. Teenagers change their hobbies or add new hobbies to the list.
- music, dancing, disco : they have usually a model in life from the showbiz and they collect everything about them
- Sport, even extreme sports. Those can be divided into indoor sports and out door sports.
- fitness, especially those girls or women who are afraid of putting on weight
- cars and scooters – not just the driving but gaining detailed knowledge about their parts, different specifications of different models, their functions etc.
- computers, not necessarily games : they are interested in chatting with friends, sometimes with friends from other countries made on the internet
- movies, actors and actresses
- painting landscapes
- taking photos.
- making a band.
- singing
