Suleiman Flies a Kite in a Refugee Camp

Caption: Darfur refugee camp in Chad


Suleiman likes to fly his kite. But it is not like a colorful kite that kids fly in the United States. It is not colorful. It is not big. His kite is made from a black plastic bag. He flies it over his home in a refugee camp.


Many children live in the camp. They still find ways to have fun. They invent games. They play soccer and tag in the hot sun. The fields are dusty. They even make swings from the old plastic bags. They hang the swings from tree branches. But there are not many trees in the country of Chad.
