I will look into it.

As Dirk has mentioned giving to the people that one sees along the way can lead to future begging from the locals which can become frustrating (as is now a common occurrence when driving to Ponta do Ouro)

On some of the trips previously to Ponta, we have bought cheap colouring in pencils and A4 soft cover books and a cheap sachet cooldrink, and put them in a plastic bag and dished them out to the kids.... Sweets are not something I'd advise giving and DEFINITIVELY not money.
