Childhood hobbies

[Kaynil]

Is there a hobby you were really into as a kid?

Did you end up abandoning it completely or did evolve as you grew up?

I am very curious to see what hobbies you had and which ones you kept.

I was a drawing fanatic as a child. I would scribble on anything. Notebooks, walls, the back of my school bag at one point got messed up I stopped a bit when I was older, but I now have resorted to drawing again. It is such a stress reliever. It’s surprising how certain childhood interests come back again.

One hobby I was always into as a child, from around the age of three, was video games. I always remember my dad had an Atari, and he allowed my brother and me to play on it one day, and from there, we became gamers I am still a gamer to this day.

Another hobby I had from 13 years old when I was first allowed to have a PC in my bedroom, and that was making websites. I started on Geocities and then slowly moved to building them myself, and now I still run websites in the form of forums today

I had a physically exhausting hobby then which was playing tennis. Even though I didn’t really know how to play it when I was young, I had so much interest in it. That is what made me pick up the sport till today.

I had racing pigeons. It was and still is one of passions. My father got me a pair when I was just 5 years old and I fell in love with them since then. When I became adult, I had to stop breeding them, I had other goals to achieve..
Horses as well. I have very good memories with horses
And another hobby was playing chess.. I never stopped playing chess.

I used to collect coins of different countries and even old coins during my childhood but I lost my way lol and abandoned it after some time.

I did not have any specific hobby, but I liked to collect a variety of pens in childhood, and I am so fascinated with pens that today also I like to buy different brands of pens for my kids. Sometimes my kids also say, "Why do I spend money to buy pens?"

I used to love cricket and it was my hobby. I used to love cricket so much that in those days I can talk about cricket for whole day, can watch cricket for whole day and even read about cricket for the whole day lol. Things haven't changed much but I don't have so much time to invest in cricket now.
