In fact, along with German reunification, many of the markets recently celebrated their 20th anniversary. In most of the towns, where official records on visitor statistics have only been kept more recently, administrators say they believe the number of tourists has remained fairly constant for the past few years, with some towns like Seiffen and Lauscha saying they have seen a slow but steady annual rise.
The December itineraries for German bus tour companies in the main centers offer all manner of Advent trips -- everything from a tour of Christmas markets complete with overnight stays to Saturday or Sunday road trips to places like Lauscha.
The growing popularity of Advent tourism in Germany also expresses itself in other ways. Firstly, there are the logistical problems that most of the small towns now have to deal with. In the past, the Lauscha fire service directed bus and car drivers to suitable car parks.

In Annaberg-Buchholz, a museum featuring a historic collection of around 1, objects -- including Christmas angels, dolls and Biblical figures -- that have been hand made in the area opened at the end of October Because of the crowds they draw every year, the glass blowers of Lauscha decided to host a pre-Christmas-market event. Local stores stayed open until later in the evening and lured guests with the promise of "relaxed shopping" before the crowds arrived. And in Seiffen, they have initiated a special series of events for children and families during their Christmas season.
They are also strengthening their ties with tourism authorities in the Czech Republic, which they see as a potential market -- after all, the Czech border is only 5 kilometers 3 miles away. It is true that up until recently most of the visitors making the pilgrimage to these very Christmassy towns have been German and usually over The atmosphere on the streets, where a lot of walking sticks and sensible shoes can be seen, is generally not what one might call youthful and adventurous.
But, no matter what the subjects are called, German children learn more or less the same as English children do. I know there are, but as this post was about school subjects I only said that subjects depended on the type of school. I might write another post about the types of schools one day. Overall, I have 13 subjects and just two of them are not nessecary to pass the year and in the other 11 if I had there twice a 5 or once a 6 you would fail.
My favourite subjects are History and Physics. Thanks for commenting Xuli! With an average of 1. Enjoy your summer holidays! If you are reading chapter books, determine how much you would read in a given evening, and write the page numbers on your chart or calendar.

Story Books work the same way, assign one or two stories to each day in December leading up to Christmas Eve. Want to make it even more special? Wrap each book in your Christmas Story Box in pretty wrapping paper, and give it a number… then, just like opening a door on the Advent Calendar, the kids can open up the book for the day! Another option is to put each book into a cloth bag with a number… you could use the bags over and over…. These books have the story in English and Germany… or just some German Words for instruction. I love the Oma and Opa books from Kevin Donovan.
