Nice idea but save all that 'Promotion for first day at school' stuff, that makes zero sense.

nice ambient but as previously said no connection to the first day at school. let's teach the kids that they need to eat more sweets to ruin their teeth.

these are so dangerous for kids, i mean what if they climb on top of one another to lick the giant balls? and by doing so miss their first day at school.

"...kids... ...lick giant balls..."

Maybe there's a connection between lolly pops and the first day of school in Frankfurt?

Is in Germany allowed to put an ad on the national traffic sign?

I think putting it behind the sign is fine, since there isn't gonna be vehicular traffic looking at it.

It's Photoshop. Look at the candy -- it has the same lighting in every picture.

is it just that you wanted to say ANYTHING or do you have candy in your eyes to not see, that this has actually been built???

NO PHOTOSHOPPING in this ad...(that's rare!!! embrace it!)

Photographer, don't step on the grass ;/
It can be only seen from the opposite side which is quite far from the small Chupa Chups 'head'.

Good idea....and thank the city for allowing using the traffic signs. (in France this will be a year of negotiation, and a year to explain to all the parents associations, etc)
I'm sure kids loved this campaign, and this is the most important thing for the brand. (let's also be good parents and not let our kids ruin their teeth, plaisure is not excess)

Simple ideas are the best !
