Footage shows children using a large plastic boat today (August 13) to get around their village after heavy rain caused floods that swamped their homes.

The residential area in Santa. Maria, Bulacan, Philippines was submerged in water after the continuous rains brought by storm Karding (Yagi) on August 12.

''This is what happened to our place. Even our comfort rooms are under the flood,'' said local Caroline Marco.

Philippines capital region Metro Manila is currently on red alert as thousands evacuated their homes because of flooding over the weekend.
