WHO ARE WE

We are Selam and Andiy. After Natnael passed away we wanted to continue his task of teaching children about their country of origin and helping families to find their stories.
This blog is to teach the children that go abroad something about their birth country and to give to the adoptive parents a way to search the biological family of their child.

Is important what you tell your children about themselves.

FOOTBALL LOVE





As in every place people love football. Sometimes children and not that children have no a good ball to play, but that is not forbidding them to use the imagination to play anyway the sport they like.

It happens often to see the most imaginative ways of creating a ball. The most famous ones are following ones:

KALSI KWAS- this balls are made from an old socks, first of all they need some used plastic bags to make the inside and after they make a ball with the bags they cover it with some old socks to make it more consistent.

WETET FESTA- In Ethiopia the milk is delivered in the shops with small plastic bags of half a liter, they open one of the sides and fill the bag with plastics and after with a rope they make it round and close it.

HIGHLAND- This ball is not that great work as others,  it consists in to use an empty bottle of water as it was a ball, I have seen amazing matches with improvised balls like this!

So, if one day you don’t have a ball don’t feel you can not play!
