What kids LOVE to do
Posted on by Dave Ashton

You may have had a tough time staying home during the pandemic…probably not your kids, though.

A new study of children aged 7 to 12 asked them their favorite hobbies…and the top ten are all indoor ones:

  1. Watching TV
  2. Watching YouTube videos
  3. Reading books
  4. Video games
  5. Watching other streaming services
  6. Playing with toys
  7. Playing mobile games
  8. Cooking
  9. Building forts
  10. Puzzles or board games. 

What do your kids like to do?
