Toys in Haiti

This bike can't be pedaled, but it can be ridden downhill! There's a sand pile in the yard outside, and the kids put the bike on top and roll down. Haitian kids are kind of ingenius at finding fun in ordinary stuff. If I had kids, I'd rather they did creative play like this, instead of watching TV.
Here's a soccer game played with a lime and some sticks.

Me with the Kids

This is a video of... children posing for a video camera. Taken by 11-year-old Mano. And for those of you looking to see me on video, here I am, about halfway through the video. Not a lot being said in this video: the children, Dadi and Berlou, are saying each other's names, and Mano asks me to squat down so I can be seen on camera.
