November’s event of the Kidlympic Games

November Kidlympic Games brought to you from GERMANY!!‏

Relay Race

Deutschherrenschule would like to host November's event of the Kidlympic Games.  

They propose a 

'Kamelle' Throwing Relay Race

'Kamelle' are called the sweeties which the participants of Carnival Parades during the Street Carnival days in their 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 metres. Place a hoola hoop ring another 3 metres 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 a ringshouting '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.
