My Hobbies

People may have many different types of hobbies during their lifetimes. When we are very young most of our time is spent playing with dolls or toy trucks. We also may enjoy playing in a sandbox or building with wooden blocks. When we get older we start to pursue our first hobbies. Some kids go out for a sport like football or figure skating. These new interests can be quite time-consuming and most children put a lot of energy into them. Some other children might get interested in less active activities like reading, painting, or stamp collecting. While some others might enjoy playing an instrument like the piano or the flute.

As we get older, our hobbies might change or they might not. Some people who collected stamps as a child might still be collecting stamps when they are 80. Other people might change their interests every year depending on fashion. Some people are lucky that they have found professions that are similar to their hobbies, like the weekend gardener who works as a landscaper or the kid who loves computers and becomes a programmer.

Some of the most popular hobbies include watching TV or videos, reading books, magazines and newspapers, playing a musical instrument, singing in a choir or listening to music. Lots of people like travelling as a hobby. Many people like to join sports clubs where they practice gymnastics, basketball, volleyball, swimming, handball or judo. The main goal of a hobby is to give youself an enjoyable break from your everyday work or school. A hobby is something you should do only for yourself.
