There's a difference between learning and being made to work...huuuuge difference...

This is child work. Child labor is work that is harmful to children. Not all work done by children under the age of 18 is child labor. At Wonder Afrika children's home, we train children with the basic principles of welfare practices intended to equip them for self-reliance in the future. This means that children have the duty to work for the solidarity of the family and assist them in case of need. Some work may therefore be done by children as long as it does not interfere with their education and enjoyment of their rights. The idea being that child work within the family unit may be a positive experience that can capacity build them in terms of vocational skills as well as social adaptation.

​@@wonderafrikathey load a 50kg pack of cement and it is not child labour? They aren't enough strong to pull the bar. I don't know which country you are based, but raise children to be responsible doesn't need to make them work that way. And you throw that on KZbin? You should be ashamed.

​@@wonderafrikaHi. Would want to buy a machine like this one . Where can I get it? Am in Zambia.

Between 120 - 150 bricks

How many kg does a dried brick weight please! ​@@wonderafrika

There are many reasons why children should learn to work, including: 1. Learning skills Working can help children learn important skills, such as time management, organization, communication, and teamwork. 2. Learning about money Working can help children learn the relationship between money, time, and things. Part-time jobs can also help children learn how to make their own money and manage it effectively. 3. Building character Work can help children learn character qualities like initiative, perseverance, and responsiveness to authority. It can also help children become more confident. 4. Learning to balance work and play. Working can help children learn how to balance work and play at a young age. 5. Learning about duty Working can help children learn that duty is recognizing an obligation that is expected to be upheld. 6. Getting excited about school Working can help children get excited about school because they believe that math is important in the real world.

Children should be playing NEVER WORKING!@@wonderafrika

​@wonderafrika those kids would rather be at school, or playing. Are they paid the amount ot an adult ?It is exploitation. Earth bricks are cheaper than ciment bricks and you lower the cost by using children? Hire their parents!!

​@@wonderafrikawith no protective gear, and meager wages, while sacrificing playtime, you're risking their lives for no good reason.

​@@wonderafrika hope you don't get discouraged by the ignorant comments. I am in the UK, I come from Uganda, Eastern Uganda. I know what is happening and what it means to those children. God bless you for thinking about those children and involving them so positively. Those who have never travelled and seen the world beyond their neighbourhoods will not understand the circumstances surrounding the involvement of these kids but their parents, teachers, neighbours, the government, and most Africans do. We know you guys are not the monsters these Western/Westernized respondents think you are. They imagine these boys are working all day, everyday, while their parents sit at home or don't care. This generation trains dogs better than it trains children.
