Rock Climbing
Alexandra F. said: This active hobby for teens can be enjoyed indoors and out, and is a great way to develop strength and physical fitness. Plus, it's fun! If your teen gets really into it, they can join local programs to climb competitively, and it is a hobby they can carry into adulthood.

BMX Biking
Alexandra F. said: For big kids who are natural daredevils, BMX biking offers a great outlet for trying out tricks big and small, depending on their comfort level (and yours). It's also a hobby that will keep teens active and outside, and which they can enjoy just as easily on their own as well as with other bike-loving friends.
