November

Deutschherrenschule is proud to host November’s event of the Kidlympic Games.

We propose a

„Kamelle“ Throwing Relay Race

„Kamelle“ are called the sweeties which the participants of the Carnival Parades during the Street Carnival days in our part of the country throw out to dressed up kids and other people watching the parades in the streets. If you like more information about the Cologne Carnival in particular, you may have a look at the following web page: http://www.cologne.de/events/cologne-carnival

And then have a good laugh at the crazy Germans…;-)

Here are the rules for the Relay Race:

Have 6 kids team up and stand in line at the starting point. Place a bucket with sweets (like lemon drops, chewing gums etc.) at a distance of 20 meters. Place a hoola hoop ring another 3 meters away from the bucket. When the race starts the first kid has to put on a funny hat or a clown’s wig and run to the bucket, take a hand full of sweets and throw them into the ring shouting „Kamelle“, run back and hand over the hat/wig to the next kid. Winner is the fastest team. Note please: Any sweets landing outside the ring will add penalty seconds to the time scored by the respective team.

And now have fun!
