This is my Hobby I like to collect rocks - all different types of rocks. I always get rocks at my Grandmother’s house. She has a pond near her house. I also have a rock necklace. The rock is an arrowhead. My favorite rocks are arrowheads. I like arrowhead because I live on an Indian grounds. I stared to collect rocks when I was 2 or 3.

Some of my hobbies are baseball and basketball. Every winter I try out for the basketball team, and every spring I try out for the North Hunterdon Little League. When I am not playing basketball and baseball I am usually collecting cards of the professional players. Baseball and basketball are not my only hobbies. I also play the guitar. Every Friday I have guitar lessons. I am also a Weeblo 1 Cub Scout and a member of Pioneer Club. I have a lot of hobbies. John

My favorite hobbies are Lacrosse, Football, and Wrestling. Every year I either play Football or Wrestling in the fall and in the Spring I play Lacrosse. In the Summer I take a break and work for my dad and go on vacations. If I had to choose my favorite I sport I could not do so. Mike

My hobbies are playing football and baseball. When I am trying to relax I go fishing with my Dad in late May. In the winter I play pool and shuffle board but my dad is better in both and those are my hobbies.

I have a lot of hobbies to tell you about. My favorite hobbies are basketball, paintball, Shooting Sports, climbing trees, and jumping on the trampoline. Now I will tell you how to do these things. You play basketball by shooting a ball in a hoop. Paintball is a type of shooting sport. Inside a rink you shoot people with your paintballs. Climbing trees is fun, you do this by pulling yourself onto it. Shooting sports is a club in which we shoot targets and learn gun safety. I like shooting targets. Jumping on a trampoline is fun but you have to be careful. Thank you for reading about my hobbies.

My hobbies are playing all different kinds of sports. My favorite sport depends on what season it is. In the fall I like to play soccer and in the winter I like to snowboard and play basketball. Springtime is my busiest of all because I play soccer and baseball at the same time. When summer arrives, I relax and don’t play any team sports. I swim, play tennis, golf, fish, go to the beach, and go on vacation. If I had to pick one of my hobbies as a favorite it will be very hard to choose.

 I enjoy doing many different things. My two favorites are basketball and dance. Playing basketball is an awesome hobby. I enjoy playing it with my friends. It teaches me teamwork and good sportsmanship. My teammates and I help each other when we need to. My Shock team is finished, and now my AAU team, Lady Lions, is starting. We practice at Clinton twice a week. At my tournaments, we play 4 games total on the weekends. I do better on defense, but I am working to improve my offense. My lay-ups are the best things on offense besides my passes. Dancing is a hobby I’ve been doing since 1997 in a school in Flemington called Gemini. I dance because I have fun, get exercise, and meet girls from other towns. Miss Robyn teaches me to do my best and practice, practice, practice!! On Mondays I have jazz, ballet, and tap. This year I’m also taking pre-point class. Next year I’m going to be on point. The recital is on a Sunday in June. This year I get to dance at North Hunterdon High School. The day is a busy and exciting one. I am going to dance forever or at least until I graduate from Gemini. So as you see these are the hobbies for me!

I love sports like soccer, Basketball, tennis, and swimming. I am Chinese, but folding paper is a Japanese art but also one of my hobbies. I also like to make clay sculptures and play piano. Another of my hobbies is collecting stuffed animals. I came up with this hobby when I was 5. I love to jump rope with my friends and run around really fast. Painting is fun since I have been painting at age 3. Drawing is a favorite hobby for me because everyone in my family can draw. Singing is nice but I cannot sing in very high pitches. These are my hobbies and now you know more about me!

Terry

Fishing is my hobby. I like fishing because when you catch a fish it feels like I just won a prize. I live very close to a creek, which in certain spots has fish that are a couple of pounds and one foot long. I usually throw them back so I can catch them again another time. I never eat them. Fishing takes a long time so you need a lot of patience. I just like to fish.

Jimmy

There are different types of hobbies I do. Basketball is one of my favorite hobbies. I like shooting hoops with my brother, Michael. There is baseball that I play too. My brother and I hit baseballs into the net in the summer. We usually do it in the summer with my mom. I also like to ride my quad. My dad and I like to go riding with our friends Chris, Al and little Al. We got really muddy and my mom doesn't care. That's the hobbies that I do.

My hobby is jumping on the trampoline. I jump on the trampoline when the weather is nice. If the weather is too cold the springs will freeze and break. If the weather is to warm you will sweat. On the trampoline, I practice my gymnastic tricks. By practicing, I can work on tricks I have trouble with, and hopefully get better at doing them. I hope I never get to big or to old to jump on the trampoline.

 Brette

I do a lot of hobbies. I used to do gymnastics at Gymnastics Unlimited, but I didn’t like it so I quit. Now I do cheerleading and dancing. I like cheerleading because you learn new things and meet new friends. What I like about dancing is the hard work that will pay off when you get it, meeting new friend, and learning new tricks. Those are my hobbies.
