Cookie Time Is Over!

It seems like it goes on forever and ever...
but it's really not that long of a time, LOL!

We actually almost doubled what we sold over the last cookie sale --
with the average sale per girl at about 350.
They earned the Kalihari Troop reward, and also,
have a GREAT treasury for projects over the next year.

 

Cookie Share Results?
102 boxes of cookies for the military!

 

We are SUPER proud of them!

 

 

Pet Patch Progress

Our Early Bird Activity is the March Swap: Birthday Baggies

Welcome Circle: Pledge led by "girl of the week".

--Birthday Patches passed out

--We are working on our Pet Patch Today!

We are going to have a tour of the Sun Prairie Animal Hospital… and we also have the Cat Show on 4/5…both happen over spring break.

• ·         Who was at the cat show last year?
• ·         What can you tell the new girls about it?
• ·         This year, we will sell cookies AND interview pet owners so we can finish our pet patch!

One of the five steps is making a pet feel loved, so we are making catnip mice toys for the animal hospital. They are pre-sewn, we need to stuff and close. {It was the first time sewing for most of the girls}

Craft time: Making spring themed swap for April.

Snack Time: puppy chow?

2014 International Bazaar

Our area puts together this grand interpretation of World Thinking Day - where all troops have the option of hosting a booth or simply enjoying the events. Items and food can be sold ($1 or less) and all money raised goes to the scholarship fund for gals who can't afford to join a troop.

Last year we played, this year we hosted a booth: England.

Our learning poster:

 Our craft: making cute decorated straw hats

Our food: Tube Steaks! (hot dogs) We also had Capri Suns there.

Yes, we did it all, LOL - but we raised $ for the fund! See some of our girls proudly turn it in?

We ended up with a great big Girl Scout Friendship Squeeze!

What did your troop do for World Thinking Day?

Earning the First Aid Patch

Our Early Bird Activity is the Manners Worksheet

Welcome Circle: Pledge led by "girl of the week".

We have a special guest today: a nurse!

We are going to earn our First Aid Patch today.

First, we need to talk about calling 911.

• ·         What is an emergency?
• ·         What do we need to know?
• ·         When do we hang up?

Remember the last meeting when I asked you to thinking of a question to ask a nurse?

Let’s ask them!{They came up with great questions like "how long have you been a nurse?", "what was your worst sickness?", "did you ever deliver a baby?"}

Let’s practice how to treat simple injuries – buddy up:

• ·         Cuts (they practiced cleaning owies on super balls)
• ·         Sprained fingers (popsicle stick splints)
• ·         Sprained wrists (using TP instead of ace bandages)

Craft time: Making first aid kits for our back packs...unless we find them at the dollar store already made up. Dollar Tree has them for a buck -- you can't beat that price! Our nurse used the extra time.

Snack Time: (bloody band aid cookies)

Clean Up Time!! Who remembers that song?

Brownie Scouts, Brownie Scouts, let’s tidy up the room! Brownie Scouts, Brownie Scouts, it’s time to go home soon.

Brownie Scouts, Brownie Scouts, we’re picking up our things! Brownie Scouts, Brownie Scouts, hear our voices sing!

Closing Ceremony:

• Next meeting we will earn make TWO swaps…. One for March and one for April. We will talk about the cat show and make a special item to go with that Pet Patch!
• Send them home with certification life savers!

• Squeeze and goodbye sister scouts!
