First Day of School means one thing… Schulanfangfeier!

Schultüten

Schultüten and grubby little feet

Yesterday was our first official school day in our family’s home school. We celebrated at our friends’ house with a traditional German first day of school party called a “Schulanfangfeier.” Our hosts presented each child with a “Schultüte,” also known as “Zuckertute.” It’s basically a cone full of school goodies! They were filled with zipper pencil cases, pencils, notepads, erasers, candies, small toys for the boys, and hair clips and lip gloss for the girls. As you can see in the picture of the boys, they were so grubby from playing outside all afternoon! Guess which two of our friends in the picture are of German descent and hosted this festive event?

Our friends made spaghetti bolognese and garlic bread for everyone. We brought the cupcakes.
