Welcome to the Hobbies & Creativity Hub
Reaching your 60s and beyond is the perfect time to explore new interests — or to return to activities you once enjoyed but never quite had time for. Whether you’re looking to be more creative, keep your mind active, or simply try something new, this part of the site brings together curated videos, articles, and beginner-friendly resources to help you get started.
You might be wondering why this content is curated rather than written as step-by-step guides. Quite simply, curated resources help you explore ideas quickly, without having to sift through overwhelming amounts of information online.
Everything here is chosen with simplicity, enjoyment, and accessibility in mind — no complicated instructions or prior experience required.
