Crazy Hobbies
What hobbies can help improve one of the five senses?
The body has five senses: Sight, Hearing, Touch, Smell, and Taste. What hobbies do you think can help improve one of these five senses? I know there are plenty of hobbies that build intelligence but I am even more interested in those that build the senses since our senses seem to dull as we age.

- POOL its hand eye cordniation.
- Bird Watching it will help your sight and sound
- learning to play the guitar would help - dexterity and i think would keep hearing sharper.
- thats an interesting question cant wait to see some more answers :-) I think most sports would help in some way such as tennis tracking the ball chasng it and hitting it in a way that allows for it to return.
- Experimental cooking (as in trying new foods, and/or spices and flavor combinations) could help to enhance and expand your palate, and sense of smell. Also, painting/drawing/sculpting could help with your optical talents; color mixing, shades, textures, shapes, etc... Sculpting as well could help with the sense of touch, and hand - eye coordination (not so much a sense). SAILING, there are all sorts of sensory experiences going on there. Sight, sound, smell, touch, and yes even taste, all happen on a sailboat... There are many things you could try to enhance your life immensely. The world is full of opportunities!
- Chess, Paint-by-numbers, Breathing exercises and meditation, Crossword puzzles, sudoku, Tai-chi, and Art. Just to name a few. Good luck
