Meeting 2: 09/03/14

We had a fun meeting this Wednesday.  The Daisies were learning about the benefits of worm composting and we made our own worm farm from a plastic bin, shredded newspaper, a little dirt and a few hundred worms. Mrs. Hartshorn is allowing us to keep the bin at the school and we will add any food waste from our meetings to the farm. We discussed what foods are biodegradable and which are appropriate for the worm farm.

From shredding newspaper and sign decorating to meeting the worms and feeding them, there was something for everyone.  The meeting ended with a cute worm craft and a new song.

This week the Brownies took their meeting outside to work on their "Fair Play" and "Making Games" badges.  The girls played beach ball boogie counting how long they could keep the ball in the air.  The girls then changed the rules and took turns coming up with new games to play with the beach ball and each other!

We concluded our meeting with the girls receiving their Bridging certificate, Welcome to Brownies certificate and "Making Friends" certificate that they earned at the last meeting.

Almost all of the girls have also earned their "Girl Scout Promise" badge by reciting the promise on their own.  

We're looking forward to our first service project at the Ronald McDonald House this Saturday!
