The enrollment of the children takes place according to registration. The children receive membership cards.
The children's groups represent the first National Socialist community in which Youth learns to know comradeship and subordination. This way, before the child is able to absorb the meaning of the term "Community" he (she) will experience its meaning through own little acts. . Before he (she) knows of the common fate of all Germans, he (she) will learn here to subordinate him (her) self voluntarily in a small group. No political ideas shall be taught the children—it is more important that values of character and emotional impulses on which alone German National Socialism can build, be awakened in them. Just like neglect of the body during the first ten years can rarely be remedied fully, it is also a hard task to correct mistakes in education within this age group. Thus the children's group will help the child, aside from school and home, to find his (her) way into the community for which he (she) was born and to which he (she) will one day have to lend all his (her) strength.
The Fuehrer with his words "Not soon enough can Youth be educated to feel themselves as Germans" has shown the way for the education of children in the National Socialist Reich.
The children shall wear uniform play suits, according to their district [Gau].
Children who have completed their tenth year will be transferred—at a ceremony—to the Boys Group [Jungvolk] or to the Girls Group [Jungmaedel]. The children will meet on one afternoon per week at a Home-gathering.
The leader of the children's group in the district Kreis and Ortsgruppe holds the position of a Hauptstellenleiterin.
