Do YOU have to help out at home?

Here's what some Global Gangers have to do...

'My favourite job is collecting firewood. It's a traditional thing for girls to do. I collect the siso plant as it doesn't smoke much when it burns. I carry it tied in bundles, using a kind of rope made from plants. We use firewood for making fires to heat our water and to cook our food, so I need to collect it every day,' says
Nthenya, 13, from Kenya.

'
My favourite job is collecting water on my cart, because I like driving things. I made it myself. It's easier to pull the water than to carry it. My cart is fun for playing on too,'

says Josephart, 12, from Kenya.

'I do lots of jobs at home. I help my mum in the garden and to clean the house and sweep the floor. I wash the dishes and help wash our clothes, too. Sometimes I help with the cooking. I can fry fish and bananas and I can cook rice, but I prefer it when my mum cooks,' says
Heide, 13, from the Philippines.
