Everybody needs a hobby, so it’s said. But even if you’re busy enough as it is (and what teacher and student isn’t), you can still benefit from exploring this list of creative hobbies for building critical thinking skills. Some of them you may already be doing. If not, consider starting out with one that interests you. Learn about it as much as possible before you dive in—creative hobbies can grow to be more than just a hobby if they resonate with you.

"I don't enjoy collaboration. My natural inclination is to generate an idea and let it swirl in my head for awhile until I eventually have a clear picture of what I want to create. Then, I set specific deadlines and get to work. It's only when I get stuck that I reach out to others. Call it selfishness or call it introversion, but it's where I am most content. And yet . . . Over the last few years, I have grown to love collaborative work. I can always tell that genuine collaboration is happening because the group work no longer feels like work. In these moments, I can sense that I am creating something as a team that I would never be able to accomplish on my own." Via paul rayner

It’s tough to be amazed when everyone in the class is churning out the same project. Conversely, I’ve found it impossible to not be constantly amazed by the work students do when given choice and the opportunity to create something new! One of the most rewarding experiences for me is to see the moment when the synapses fire and a student suddenly sees something that hadn’t been there before. Via paul rayner

I have the best job. Ever. Just putting that out there now. Today, with my little mini STEM group, we just sat and played with LEGO for an hour and half. I tipped out the whole box on my floor and we played, talked, and created together. Absolute bliss. There was obviously some learning taking place though. Secret learning that the kids didn’t even know about! Via paul rayner
