Summary/Abstract: Children spend most of their time in three mainly institutionalised settings: school, home and recreational institutions (Rasmussen, 2004). In the Majority World,1 they also often spend a substantial amount of time supporting the family through work, often outside these three areas, such as in the fields. In both the Majority and Minority Worlds, the street is a fourth – or fifth – place that children occupy, either on their journey from home to one of these institutionalised settings, or as a play space in itself.
