The Universal Language of Bubbles

It's incredible how much joy bubbles bring to people of all ages, of all cultures and countries. Its a great way to break down boundaries where there are language barriers.

Case in point:

These pictures were taken over the last four years or so, from KwaNyuswa to Molweni to Umzimkulu. So the moral of the story? When working with children in a development context, when in doubt, always bring out the bubbles :). 

NB In the last photo the plastic bubble blower broke so we were trying to make bubbles out of a bent piece of grass. In a line of work with limited resources, you'll need to get creative!
