Hi Rob! As you might remember, we are currently working on a project about different hobbies and we need a couple of pictures for it. Well, I have found the pictures, but I cannot send them to you right now — I think there are some technical issues. Anyway, I will tell you about these snaps and share my ideas with you in this voice message.
As for the first picture, it represents some children playing board games. I think they are in the classroom as they are clearly sitting at the desks. The second picture shows some LEGO set on the table, there is a hand next to it and i think there is a person behind the camera who is excited to start putting this LEGO set together. Nothing much is happening in the picture, and as for the location — it is clearly some room or probably a classroom.
I believe that these pictures are perfect for our project as they represent different hobbies that people often take up.
The hobbies depicted in the images are different, though. The first hobby — playing board games — usually requires at least two players, while it is easy to play with LEGO when you are alone. Another major difference is the rules: board games usually have a clear set of rules while playing with LEGO has no rules at all and the game is only limited by the imagination of the player.
When it comes to the advantage of board games, the main advantage is clearly the development of the social competence of the players, while the disadvantage of the games of such kind is that it is fairly easy to lose some things required for the game — such as dice, for example. As for the advantage of playing with LEGO, it is definitely the infinity of things that one can make with the particles. As for the disadvantage, I would say that it can be painful to step on LEGO particles, but it happens quite often as many kids play LEGO on the floor.
Talking of my preferences, I would prefer the hobby depicted in the first image as I enjoy talking to my friends and trying to understand the rules of some new games that I haven’t played yet.
That’s all that I wanted to say.
