Shocked and angry with these images I decided that I would use one of our workshops (Gaffa tape and cardboard) to re create a bag of coca pods one to one scale. I estimated the height of this small child and worked out the size of the bag. I left a hole in the top to put things in.
Getting children to tidy up their toys and their friends toys in this bag in a school context would be a way to start a conversation about a difficult subject like child labour.
Coca pod bag
becomes a way of starting a conversation with children about slavery
And an improvised toy box/ way of tidying up.
