Stamps collection is an unique art. It helps not only to learn about a country and its culture and traditions but also helps to get some good friends and exchange different kinds of stamps. Stamps collection helps a lot to know many unknown things. Segregating them and making an Album countries wise is a biggest task. It needs lots of patience and planning. I have been collecting stamps for many years and still I'm looking out for some rare and beautiful stamps from various countries. Learning about stamp's size, design, shape and texture will be interesting. Some scented stamps are unique. Stamps with wild animals, birds, flowers will be very colourful and mind blowing. Parents should encourage stamps collection among their kids and help them to get stamps, organise them and display them neatly. Protecting & preserving all the stamps is a biggest challenge. Once a Stamps Album is made the happiness one gets out of it cannot be described in words. This is such a beautiful hobby.

The world's first stamp was released by England in the year 1840. Hence, it had not country's name and even today England release stamps without their country's name but contains only photo of their Kings/Queen. Since then many countries started releasing their stamps with their country's name and themes. Hence we can stamps are a medium to showcase their country's uniqueness and hence it is a medium of knowledge on various topics. Stamps depicts lifestyle and activities of human beings across the world. Indian stamps highlights India's pride, heritage, culture, etc. The basic design of stamps are done by world class designer artists and photographers and hence stamps are a masterpiece by themselves. Collection of stamps is not costly as we can collect stamps through our parents, friends and relatives from foreign countries also. Hobby of stamp collection can be practiced by young and old. School going children can gain knowledge on culture, history, science, environment, plants, etc.

According to me Stamp collecting can benefit someone in many ways. Some of them are given below :

1.) Improving creativity: Collecting stamps can help you develop your creative skills by encouraging you to find unique ways to display and organize your stamps. For example, you can create a scrapbook, a collage, or a shadow box to showcase your stamps.
2.)Knowledge of heritage and culture: Stamp collecting provides a window into the history, culture, and heritage of different countries and societies. Each stamp has its own story to tell, and by studying the images, designs, and historical context, you can gain a deeper understanding of the world around you.
3.)Cultural exchange: Collecting stamps can also help you connect with people from other cultures and countries. You can join stamp collecting clubs, attend stamp shows, or participate in online forums to connect with others who share your passion. This can help you learn about different perspectives, traditions, and ways of life.

Since my school days, I started to collect stamps.Now I realise- a Stamp is not just a part of the postage; but, a small travelling museum that records our History, Tradition, Culture etc. Apart from that, it holds various informations on personalities (freedom fighters, scientists, social reformers, athletes ec), lifestyle, Govt schemes and so on. As a stamp collector and as a History student, I know the importance of the Stamp Collection and I feel proud for preserving all these unique antiques.

A hobby club should start in every school as a part of its curriculum.. This will help students make their creativity from the beginning.. stamp collection, coin collection, feather, different leafs, stones etc etc and childrens can submit details of what they done as a small project work every year and give a extra talent points to them.. this will help to use their time in better way
