Some say old age is a time for reflection. Others say it’s an opportunity to rest. But for many, it’s a time to have fun!

Today we’re bringing you an ultimate collection of fun activities for seniors from Great Senior Living. This will cover hobbies and recreation options of various types, providing something for everyone.

Let’s start with active recreational options. Maybe you could take up golf? Or pool? How about tossing a Frisbee in the park? Maybe bowling? Don’t forget there’s lawn bowling and even Wii bowling if you don’t want to head out to have a good time.

You can also engage in performing arts, fitness classes, and other group activities that bring you together with others. Some say the best fun activities for seniors are the ones that promote social interaction as well as exercise.

Keep in mind you don’t have to break a sweat to have fun. Consider scheduling a card night with friends. If you prefer to play alone, take up solitaire, or maybe play chess or checkers online against a computer opponent.

If you want to nurture your creative side, you could take up gardening, bird watching, or kite flying. There are also many traditional art hobbies like painting, drawing, sculpting, and more.
