While
perusing what is going on over at Bilingual Babes, I came across Tallulah’s post
about German Schultüte. I thought that is was such a fantastic cultural
practice and very timely for us since schools just started their new academic years
this week. Do stop by Bilingual Babes
and read all about the Schultüte, I’m
sure Tallulah will welcome everyone!
Basically, in Germany, children receive Schultüte before school starts.
It is a large paper or maybe plastic decorated cone that is filled with
sweets, school supplies and other miscellaneous and practical toys (think
Christmas Stocking). In short, the idea is to celebrate the starting of school. What a super concept! MamaMamaHoney also posts about her before school celebration and Schultüte.
Through
a simple Google search, you can find much more information about Schultüte including an online store, KinderCone where you
can buy them!
¡Feliz Schule!
