- The boys and girls in this district make some toys for their amusement. The boys make snares for snaring rabbits out of thin copper wire with a loop at one end.They also make slings for throwing stones. This is made from a bit of light leather, and two cords attached to it. The leather is about six inches long, and the cord is tied on to each end of it.
Pop-guns were made by the old people, but we do not see them in use at all at the present day. This toy was made from a piece of an elder tree It was about one foot long with a hole cleaned out at the centre. Then there was a cork of wet paper packed firmly in to each end of it, and one of the corks was forced to the centre by means of a stick called the "ram rod", and the air pressure between the two corks forced one to go out very quickly.
The girls make daisy-chains in the following way:- They make a hole in the centre of the daisy, and then they put the stem of another one in the hole. In this way they tie a long string of daisies together.- Bailitheoir
