The kids here are very creative with their toys. They find ways of making them. Here are some toys I have seen kids playing with...
The kids are even more creative than the adults! (Picture 1) I love this little wire car. The wheels are made out of soda cans and they turn too! Any of these kids would be happy to own a ball some day. (Picture 2) The little rock toy with the door was full of little insects. I think it's like a little insect farm the kids play with. (Picture 3) A hopeful bike with only one wheel.

Dude, I think these kids are smarter than I am! That's the nice thing about kids, they are so curious and always look for ways to entertain themselves.
These toys remind me of science fair projects we did at Brentwood growing up. Dad sure got creative a couple time there!! haha

I like the simplicity of these toys. Hmmm, but I don't know about the bike with only one wheel...maybe a little too simple. But seriously, I think kids today are overstimulated. TV, video games, computer, its nice to go back to basics. I wish I could go to Africa and give each of the kids a new little toy of their own. We have so much here.
Thanks for sharing your adventures, Andrea. I am going to show my children this post tonight. I think they need to see the creativity and also help them see much they really have (which is a blessing, but can be a hindrance to growth if you take it for granted).
Take care and have a safe trip back.
