Rickshaw made by NGO Thatta KidonaMaking toys to support rural handicrafts.. I marvel at the industriousness with which traditional toys are made here, using anything at hand really – small chapoys made of reeds, miniature trucks, buses and other mundanities all crafted with an amazing amazing talent for improvisation.

Jolly good idea i say!

Thatta Kedona is a project of the first Pakistan international NGO network in rural area where handmade quality dolls and toys are crafted using all indigenous material and traditional designs based on cultural and folklore themes. The workmanship of the dolls and toys has acclaimed international recognition and clientele through their participation in numerous international events, exhibitions, fairs and display..
