Playing Mancala: A video of two children playing the traditional African game
of Mancala in a version called Oware that can be played
on the streets without a board
Although those playing Mancala traditionally use a wooden board, this video shows two African children playing Mancala on the streets of their village without a board, as the game can be just as easily played using stones and by making holes in the ground.

Short but sweet :) It just goes to prove you don't need to spend any money for entertainment!
Love the look of concentration on that boy's face whilst he's playing mancala, it might be just a game but he looks as though he's determined to win. Nice video BTW.
