hi
im a twelve year old boy, who wants to have a hobby.
i already have one, which is my aquarium(s)
but that is not very time consuming?
so what i need is another cheap, time consuming hobby that i can do for myself, and is fun.

You could always make models.It is very time consuming and my boys liked to make model cars when they were younger.Or model ships.
The kits are not very expensive.It is intense work and you do need patience but you will have a nice collection to show for it.

Start learning how to play an instrument, it is very time consuming! Read books, write stories, sing, paint/draw, play sports, write poems/lyrics, learn card tricks, learn 'magic' tricks! Play chess, play checkers? There is so many things you can do!

well... i like animals, and i got some aquariums, but that doesnt take all my free time:d
i just cant afford a musical instrument, and im not very creative when it comes to painting/writing
i also play computer a lot, and im saving up for one myself but i wont get to have that before next spring either
something that could make me some money would be extremely nice,
but i dont know what that should be
i like fishing and im doing that a bit, but so far i only tryed put and take and thats too expensive...
but thanks for suggestions so far
i love trying to breed my fish, maybe that could lead to something else?:O

Have you considered bird watching? I used to bird watch when I was younger and I personally enjoyed it.

On that same note if you got a cheap camera, maybe even second hand you could pick up photography and photograph local wildlife and such.

Its not really a hobby per say but you could do some volunteer work for your local humane society or shelter.

Try this, you can get your friends and kids around the hood to do it too and charge them. I sold many of these this myself. I took old t-shirts and hung them on hanger and then throw paint at them. You can buy snazzy colors even glitter. You can charge them for the paints they use and do it outside. You have to water the paint down some what to make it fly better and use a paint brush or maybe twigs , paints brushes hold more paint they would be better. Heck you could used spary cans if you'd like. Regular craft paint works best, the ones in like 2 or 4 oz. bottles. They cost about a dollar each. Your friends could bring their own shirts, pants, sweat suits. When you get better at it you can use those rubber stamps. I sold many many of these for 10 dollars. Glow in the dark paint would be cool. Florsecent would be way cool. Do one for the whole family for x-mas. Hope I helped.
