February Service Project

On Saturday, we joined another Service Unit to make Valentines for kids in the hospital. We used one of the rooms at the public library. The girls loved crafting the Valentines with pink and white card stock, stickers, and glitter glue. I love that they were thinking of others.

Of course, there's a patch for that. https://makingfriends.com/product/valentine-card-making-patch/

Earning the Speaking In Sign Badge

We had a great time at our last meeting. The grandmother of one of our Brownies works at the School for the Deaf. She led part of the meeting, brought sign language alphabet book marks, and showed a video of a sign language presentation of Cinderella.

The girls enjoyed learning to sign their names and say, "Would you like to buy some Girl Scout cookies?" in sign language.

They also tried lip reading and word-less skits.
