Cat's Cradle

I joined my friend Tarek on a trip to visit a Palestinian refugee family living here in Amman. I was trying to think of something to share with the children and out of the blue remembered the string game, "Cat's Cradle", a game I had learned from my mom as a kid. The eldest son, Muhammad (in green) said to me, "your mother taught you to play and one day I will teach my children."
