Life for Children in the Colonies

When I see the children in the colonies I just want to cry.  They have no play area, no school, no place to bathe. 



The water for the whole colony is from a central well.  They often have brown hair instead of black - a sure sign of malnutrition.  They are happy, loved and well cared for by their family.




This colony has a short slide for them to play on.  I'm sure it can only be used 9 months of the year.  In the summer it would be much too hot.
They are dirty and usually have near nothing on.
