		Out in the Eastern Arrente Communities of Central and Northern Australia, the men and boys have learned to make do when it comes to their toys.
		ìThe toys were produced by Arrente men and boys in the three communities and most of the men have been involved in the pastoral industry.î Not surprisingly in the desert communities, whitefella toys from the big city stores are hard to find, so the children make their own.
		These bush toys highlight the major role Aboriginal people have played in the pastoral industry as drovers, saddlers, station hands and cooks contributing valuable knowledge of the land and at the same time staying close to their traditional country.
