How to Make a Plastic Bag Soccer Ball

Peter and the brothers decided to make a soccer ball out of "plastics" as the Zambians call it - or plastic bags as we know it.

First you take a bunch of plastic bags and wad them up very tightly and wrap one bag around the whole lot of them.

Then you take take parts of a mealie meal bag (woven out of plastic strands) and braid them (see Mutale and Peter above) - these will be used to wrap around the wad of plastics...

Then, you get all the brothers together to help untangle the long string...

Mutale, the expert tier, puts the finishing touches to keep the ball intact.

Ta dah! The finished product!
