Pupen

Pupen is a term used in the context of the German language and culture, particularly in the context of the German education system. The term "Pupen" refers to the practice of students, typically in primary or secondary schools, wearing a small, often colorful, cap or hat as part of their uniform. These caps are typically worn on the head and are often adorned with the school's logo or colors. The purpose of the pupen is to create a sense of unity and belonging among students, as well as to promote a sense of pride in the school and its traditions. The practice of wearing pupen is not universal in German schools, and some schools may choose to forgo this tradition in favor of other forms of school spirit. The pupen is an important aspect of the German school experience for many students, and it serves as a reminder of the shared history and values of the school community.
