Hobby is an interest towards making the best usage of time. It also helps us to understand the value of time management. There are many areas where a hobby can be developed, and different people with different motives develop a hobby.
Hobby also helps to choose a better career. For instance, if someone develop the habit of drawing and painting and sharpen it time to time, then that hobby can bring a great change in his/her life. He can start his career as a artist, and can also earn good money as well as contribute his services for a social cause.

How hobbies can be developed?
Firstly, parents need to observe their child interest and will try to build and develop the hobby by spending quality time, then they can bring a great change in his life. They should guide them to spend quality time on developing a decent hobby. They should treat their child as a friend, so that they can discuss about their hobbies in a friendly way and work on it. This is better said than done, but parents need to strive. Also, it is better to work with a set of options rather than a single hobby. It is difficult to predict which hobby will be taken up by the child.
Secondly we need to be more of a social person, so that we can be in touch with the people whose hobby are alike ours. If possible we should join some courses and seminars related to our hobby, so that we can master our self in a particular area. The more time we will invest on to develop good habits, the more we will become a person of good willpower, determination and dedication. So we always find some time to develop new things and sharpen them time to time.
