Abstract

People’s regularly occurring interest-based recreational activities are called hobbies. Hobbies are leisure pursuits, in which adults and children have persistent engagement, outside of work. People who pursue hobbies are called hobbyists. Hobbyists engage in their hobbies because of interests about a topic, to experience design or development challenges, and/or the desire to participate in the hobby’s activities or affinity group.
