Trash to Toys

Kids in Cameroon Get to play with Remote controlled cars. This is really cool because Cameroon is a poor country. Adult craftsmen the country are taking materials such as wire, beads and recycled cans And they make toys such as toy cars,trucks and bikes.

 

In Cameroon, one such popular toy crafted by kids is a ‘remote controlled’ car or ATV. These are often built from discarded flip-flops (slippers), sardine tins, bamboo or raffia palm, electrical conduit (pipe), rubber and bits of string. It’s not difficult to spot toy cars like this being piloted by kids in Cameroon.
