Tips
- A hobby is any activity you do regularly (in your leisure time) for enjoyment. It doesn’t matter whether you’re into animation, Zumba, or something in between: this badge is your chance to shine.
- You can earn more than one Hobbies Activity Badge while you’re a Cub. Why not perfect something you’re already doing, and then try something new?
