I liked to both tell and listen to / read stories, both in spoken or written form. I still love that to this day.

I particularly liked if I was able to do that while outside in nature. That's something I do less often though. I think it would be a good idea for me to take a book / listen to an audiobook, or spend some time writing outside in a park or even just in my tiny garden.

I would say that my favorite pastime was every single moment with my grandma. She was more than my mom. I always wanted her as my mom not my original mom lol. I had spent my whole childhood and teenage time with her but I had lost her recently. I miss her a lot. She was the person whom I have habit of. Secondly, I have done lots of activities in my childhood which is difficult to choose one. But okay I would say playing Business King. It's a game. If you don't know about it, you can search lol. It's my all time favorite game. I never get bored of it. I can play it whole day. But nowadays, no one has time really. And I don't know where is that game or I guess I have to buy new one for playing again 😃❤

What was your favorite pastime or activity when you were a child? What did you like about it? Would you give it another try someday?

Thank you for this question as it was nostalgic giving it a thought and going back to those memories of being a kid. ❤

When I was a kid, I used to love drawing; playing with my barbie dolls and their princes; watching cartoons; playing clay; building blocks.
My favorite cartoon shows were - Courage The Cowardly Dog, Scooby Dooby, Noddy, Oswald, The Story of Cinderella, Pocahontas, Legend of Zorro, The Great Book of Nature, Simba - The Lion King.

Although I recently took part volunteering and drew few pictures for a noble cause, the rest of the things such as playing with Barbie dolls is impossible for me now! 😂

​​​​
I remember giving away all my toys to some less fortunate kids long back.
Due to my profession and further studies, it is not possible to get involved in those activities but sometimes I do some of them such as drawing, watching cartoons. I watched Courage The Cowardly Dog on YouTube last year when covid happened.

How about you?

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou I loved this post! You always come up with very good questions ☺︎

One of my favorite activities as a child was playing hide and seek with my brothers, especially at hotels. Every time we went on vacation, we would play hide and seek before even unpacking our bags😂 Even though the hotel rooms were small, we always found places to hide. I would give it another try someday; it hasn't been long since the last time we played😊

Hello! I am Sachi and I am new here. Thank you for hosting this thread!

I remember when I was younger, I really loved playing hide-n-seek with my friends. There's just something very thrilling about it. A playful side of the younger me loved the idea of sneaking. Whenever my friends and I would think of a game to play, I would always suggest hide-n-seek, and often I'd feel sad once the game ends.

Another one I remember is coloring books! It feels satisfying to fill in the gaps with pretty colors. <3
Also roleplaying! And cooking games. I remember snatching leaves from the garden, putting them on my toy chopping board and chopping them with my toy knife. Then I'll get some water, put it in my toy pot and pretend to boil it with the leaves! Good old days! <3
