The Kinderbach is an almost 10 km long tributary of the Pfrimm in the northern Palatinate and southern Rheinhessen .
course
The children creek rises, as Weidengraben , in the district between Biedesheim and child home . Here it flows through wide arable land to the children's home. Above Kindenheim the stream bed is mostly dry. From the Kindenheim, the stream carries water permanently and now flows on to Bockenheim an der Weinstrasse . After crossing under the Weinstrasse , the Kinderbach reaches the Rhine-Hessian area between Monsheim and Hohen-Sülzen . From here the brook is also called Quodbach . Shortly after crossing under the Monsheim – Grünstadt railway line, the water seeps away in a renatured stream bed. Most of the last three kilometers the creek bed has dried out. Between Monsheim and Worms-Pfeddersheim the brook flows into the Pfrimm from the right.
