For us children

For us children is a special series of postage stamps from the Federal Republic of Germany. It has been published annually since 1993. The motifs are designed to be suitable for children and should invite you to think up stories that go with the motifs. Until 2003, the stamps were labeled “ Kindermarke ”. Since then, they only have the words “ For us children ”, which until then was printed on the pad outside of the actual postage stamp. Until 2003 all issues were issued as a stamp pad. The series is designed by different artists. The individual stamps always showed the postage value for a normal letter.
