From learning something new online to picking up an old former hobby, your options are endless. Since starting a hobby is a great way to add structure to your daily routine and strengthen your brain, we’ve decided to round up our top 7 retirement hobbies for seniors.

Online Learning

Taking the time to learn something new at any age of your life is important! Learning new things, whether it’s a hobby, or a lifelong interest that you want to learn more about, learning can bring joy and structure to your day-to-day. Online learning is accessible, flexible, and often very cost-effective. With minimal supplies, other than a computer or tablet and an internet connection, you can find a variety of how-to videos on YouTube, or short, self-directed courses through local colleges and universities. The best part? Many online learning options are fairly cheap, costing you a fraction of what an in-person class would, and sometimes, they’re even free! By choosing to learn online, you’re able to utilize a customized learning experience that works best for you.

Walking and Hiking Groups

One of the easiest and healthiest hobbies to take up is to join a walking or hiking group! Not only will you have the chance to get out of the house and into the fresh air, but you’ll feel great while doing it! Walking for a quick 45-minutes a day has a variety of positive impacts on your health, including lowering blood pressure and cholesterol, and reducing your risk of heart attacks and strokes. Some of our favourite trails are Mt. Thom Park, Chilliwack Community Forest, Jinkerson Park, and Sardis Park.

Book Club

You may remember book clubs being all the rage years ago, but they’re definitely seeing a resurgence with readers of all ages! Reading as you age helps with a variety of things, including your overall cognitive health, your ability to concentrate, and your ability to deal with stress and improve your memory. Joining a book club means you’re joining a community of likeminded individuals with similar goals and beliefs as you. Whether you’re reading a classic or something new, you’ll be sure to find a deep connection with your book club friends. In addition to joining a community of likeminded people, book clubs offer you a glimpse into society from another point of view. When you have a chance to discuss a topic that you’re passionate about, you often hear a variety of interpretations, which expands your knowledge.

Scrapbooking

Looking for an easy at-home hobby? Why not try out scrapbooking! Not only does scrapbooking help you preserve your cherished memories, but it also helps you sort through your boxes of photographs and declutter! Scrapbooking as a hobby is a great way to get those creative juices flowing. You can spend hours upon hours sifting through your photos and other memorabilia and planning how you want each page of your scrapbook to look. The best part? It’s a hobby that can be passed down to your kids and grandkids.

Photography

Photography is another great hobby for seniors, and it pairs especially well with online learning. There are hundreds of websites, videos, and forums dedicated to photography for beginners and they’re often rich in content and free to access. Photography allows you to understand your hidden artistic abilities! You don’t need the latest technology or a fancy camera to start your journey, a simple cellphone camera should do the trick, especially when you’re starting out. So, the next time you’re thinking of taking a walk-through Chilliwack’s beautiful trails, why not bring your camera along for the trip?

Gardening

Are you looking for a hobby that keeps you close to home? Gardening will do the trick – and you can do it year-round! Gardening is an ideal activity for seniors because it’s fun, allows you to be creative, and aids in daily exercise. Gardening on a regular basis improves your body physically and mentally, with light lifting, bending, and reaching, as well as pre-planning what your space will look like. With the ability to garden year-round, you can get pretty creative with your space, even if it’s on the smaller side. From planning to planting seeds, to watching them grow and flourish into your beautiful masterpiece, you’ll find yourself invested throughout the entire process. The next time you’re looking for a couple of plans to spruce up your outdoor space, why not check out a local gardening centre? Our favourite gardening centre is Minter Country Garden.

Bird Watching

Are you interested in getting outdoors and learning about your local ecosystem? Why not try bird watching? Bird watching can be enjoyed at any age and mobility level. Not only does it get you outside, but it can aid in a variety of health-related issues as well. By spending time in nature, you can decrease stresses and anxiety, and practice your meditation skills. Now that you’ve heard our top list of hobbies, what are you waiting for? It’s time to try one out and see what you’ll like! For a limited time, Malloway Village is offering a fast-close bonus on select home purchases. Right now, you can save $20,000 on the purchase of your new home.

Additionally, we offer home buyers the opportunity to purchase homes that are still in the construction phase, allowing them to customize their space to their liking before moving in.

Home Features That Age with You in Mind

With our ease of use design, each home offers a variety of amazing features. All homes feature open living spaces with master bedrooms on the main floor and are wheel-chair and walker accessible. With the ability to be modified over time to best fit your needs, our homes age with you in mind. Some of our built-in home features include reinforced grab bars in bathtubs and showers, lowered light switches, and the ability to lower counters and cabinetry in the kitchen. Additional upgrade features include a bank of drawers instead of cupboards, roll-out shelves, and garburator installation.

First, there's the general clutter, things you thought you'd maybe use but never did. Then, there are the everyday items, like your bed, dressers, couches, and TV systems. And then finally, there are the sentimental items. Your kid's school projects, past birthday gifts, photos, cards, you know, all the stuff that you want to keep but don't know where it should go. There is so much more to downsizing than just the physical act of decluttering your home. More often than not, it's the home you've lived in with loved ones for years, sometimes even decades, so there's even more reason to hold onto things and have sentimental feelings towards your belongings. Downsizing for seniors can reveal may emotions and challenges, so we've compiled some tips on how to take on this challenge.  

Understand the reason for downsizing

Sometimes, we don't evaluate and understand the reason why we need downsizing. Are there specific pros and cons to this in your specific situation? Do you have a list of items that you know you’d like to keep? It’s always great to have a game plan set in place, even if it’s just the basics. We suggest reviewing all the major things you know you’ll need in your new home like furniture, household appliances, and your everyday items like clothes. From there, you can sort through secondary items like books, wall decorations, and photos.  

Get help from family and friends

Downsizing is a huge task, and it’s hard to do it all alone. That’s why we suggest asking for help from family and friends. Telling them about your plan and keeping open communication can help to create a seamless downsizing experience.  

Use a sorting system when decluttering

It’s hard to not consider specific belongings meaningful and important. Maybe it’s a piece of art or a handwritten card that you can’t seem to part with, or maybe it’s an item of clothing that you wore on your wedding day, or to a graduation ceremony. Different belongings will have a different meaning to everyone, so there’s no right or wrong way to create a decluttering system. We suggest assessing your belongings before you start your decluttering process. This will give you the chance to make notes on which items you know you’ll 100% want to get rid of and which you’ll want to keep. After this preliminary assessment of your belongings, you can start sorting through what you’ll keep, donate and sell.  

Most importantly, take some time to reminisce!

As we’re sure you know downsizing is a long and emotional task, so why not take some time to reminisce and remember all those fond memories? When you’re sorting through years and years of belongings, a rush of memories can be brought back, both good and bad. Having a chance to reflect on your past means having a chance to understand situations from a different point of view with a fresh set of eyes. Looking for the right place to downsize to? Malloway Village offers a variety of beautiful two-bedroom and den floorplans that work for a variety of families and individuals. We’re currently offering private home viewings and virtual tours of our two show homes. You can read all about our show homes here.

This summer Malloway Village will be working on the construction of our pickleball courts that all residents will have access to. Pickleball is a great form of light exercise for individuals of any age and is quite favoured by seniors. Pickleball is a paddleball sport that follows similar rules of tennis, badminton and table tennis and can be played in groups of twos or fours, making it an ideal game for couples and neighbours. Malloway Village will also be working on the construction of our RV storage park this summer. With room to park your RV, no matter the size, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your RV is nearby in a safe area that you can visit whenever you need. In addition to the pickleball courts and the RV parking area, Malloway Village also offers a friendly and long-term community for its residents. Not only will you be surrounded by individuals of a similar age, but you’ll be a part of a community of individuals who work to help one another in times of need. Maybe that means picking up the odd grocery item for your neighbour, or lending out a landscaping tool like a shovel, you can rest assured that you’ll be surrounded by a caring and kind community. You’ll find your friendships with your neighbours will flourish when you’re at Malloway Village. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Malloway Village is offering virtual home tours of our two beautifully furnished show homes.
