October 3rd Around the World

Today we worked on our Brownie Girls Scouts Around the world try-it. We learned that sometimes girl scouts have different names in other countries. For example in Chile Brownies are called Little Wings. We looked at a map of the world and found fun facts about Italy, Ghana and Thailand. Our world tour then took us to Germany where we learned a fun little folk song and then we played a game from Canada called Music Mystery. It was kind of like name that tune(for the old people that remember that game).

Our next meeting is October 18th. We will be talking about girl scout traditions from being prepared for emergencies to making smores. We need each girl to bring a sock to make a puppet with next time. We will also ask each girl to talk about one way their family is prepared for an emergency and to come prepared to share that with the troop on the 18th. We will give a different situation to each girl this evening and I will post that tonight or tomorrow.

Yesterday I received some of the items from my friends troop. I haven't had a chance today to go through it thoroughly but it looks like she had the journey books (which we will do also) so I will look into what the try-it books will cost and let you know.
