African Children Quotes

“Children can be so inventive with so little; in dozens of villages I see kids playing enthusiastic games of football with balls made from a scrunched-up polythene sheet tied with string, while other children trundle little cars and aeroplanes made with tin cans and bits of rubbish, or race down the road with a hoop and stick straight out of Dickens.

― Fran Sandham, Traversa
