Games

In a place where Toys-R-Us and Walmart and all those other fabulous stores don’t exist and therefore don’t allow children to buy every possible toy they could want, children here have to be a bit more creative when it comes to playing games and having toys. There are a old school basics here like cards, marbles and a board game like Parcheesi but most of the time, children end up recycling things to make toys. Here are some of the most common games kids in my town play:

An old tire and a stick - they run as they push the wheel with the stick

Just about the only board game available in town

Toy cars made from wood, old cans, rubber, etc

A game kind of like tic-tac-toe
