Children watch videoes, play, explore and look for vegetables with friends and family. Most of the children do not stay home during the day. Some children even slep in nearby vegetable garden. When the children do not return home, their parents have to look for them in the dark. In December four children were arrested outside the camp and detained by Thai army. UNHCR authorities had to negotiate with Thai authorities and they were released.
