Hobbies are interesting things that people like to do in their spare time. My father has a hobby. He has a model railroad set that he put together. A tiny electric train runs through make-believe villages and travels through the tunnels and over mountains. My father also enjoys sailing. He has a real sailboat that he takes us out on. He is teaching me how to sail. I like to collect things. I collect comic books,stamps and coins. I trade comic books with some of my friends,and sometimes I buy comic books at stores. Some of the very old comic books are worth a lot of money. I have stamps from all over the world. Whenever any of my friends get a letter from a faraway place,they save the stamps for me. I have stamps from England,Japan,Australia and even Russia. I use a magnifying glass to look at the stamps,and I keep them in a special album. I don't have too many coins,but I have a vert old dime from Canada,and I have a coin with a hold in it from Africa. My mother used to collect dolls when she was a little girl. The dolls wore costumes from different countries. My friend John's hobby is painting. He does oil painting. He has even sold some of his paints. He is a good artist. My friend Linda sews. She has made some clothes for herself and some of her friends. Maybe Linda will be a fashion designer when she gets older. Sometimes people's hobbies lead them into their careers.
