Wordless Wednesday — German Schultuete for Preschool

by Dagmar on September 1, 2010

{L graduated to the “big kids” room and now gets to go upstairs. Just another reason to give him another Schultuete like every German child receives on the first day of school. It was filled with little gifts, pencils, and a little bit of candy. Remembering getting my own made me cry — my little boy is growing up so fast!}

My daughter is 6 now and just started school. We gave her a big Schultuete and my son and little daughter were so excited, because each of them got also one. It´s so exciting for the kids.
And your little man looks so cute with his beautiful Schultuete! Kids just grow up to fast. I´m glad I still have my little girl who is just 2 1/2 years old. ;o)
Have a happy wednesday!

What a wonderful tradition for the first day of school. We should adopt that custom here. The children would love it so much. He is so adorable.
