Ivy's 100 WC #3

One little teddy bear
Lay on the sidewalk
Like a star in the sky
A little cuteness in the sadness
It may be beautiful
But it looks so lost
Like a little boat
Lost in the dark, deep sea
But in that darkness
There is a glow
Of hope and kindness
If a child comes upon
This little teddy bear
They might say:
“Oh! When I see this bear,
My heart will break and I will see
My grandmother, smiling
Saying comforting words, hugging me with
Her warm hands.”
They will hug the teddy

And soon it will have a home.

100 WC #7

One day I woke up I was up at 6:30 And I wasn’t even tired My breakfast was delicious For some reason (as usual) And I got to school at 8:30 Sharp School was nice Pizza for lunch No science No math No writing No reading No nothing Except for recess and lunch (duh) It was a perfect day Until I came home Until my dad told me I was switching to another state Until a little voice said You’re leaving your friends Your teachers Your favorite pizza Forever I was so cross I started screaming And screaming and screaming And screaming and screaming Until my dad yelled over my screams: “Not until you’re done with school!” Oh. I guess that’s not so bad. Huh.

girl scout outdoor adventures

From the backyard to the country, Girl Scouts has a long, built, and successful history of getting girls outdoors. In fact, many Girl Scouts tell us “camping trips” are one of the best things about their Girl Scout experience. It’s true: connecting with nature in a all-girl setting is a big benefit of belonging to Girl Scouts. Studies show that girls today are not spending nearly enough time outdoors. Technology and structured activities leave less time for girls to get outside and enjoy nature. But as a Girl Scout, she’ll have plenty of opportunities to create her own outdoor adventures and develop a lifelong appreciation for nature and the out-of-doors—whether with her troop, at camp, or with friends and family. And that’s great news—because when Girl Scouts get outside, they: Discover that they can better solve problems and overcome challenges Develop leadership skills, build more socially, and are happier overall Become team players and care more about protecting our envir...

girl scout uniforms

  Girl Scout badges, patches and awards should be presented, worn, and displayed only after Girl Scouts have completed the requirements outlined in official program materials. Girl Scouts at each level have one required thing they wear (tunic, sash, or vest) to display official pins and awards when they participate in ceremonies or officially represent the Girl Scout Movement. For girls ages 5 to 14, the normal clothes worn to display pins and awards is a tunic, vest, or sash combined with their own solid white shirts and khaki pants or skirts. Girl Scouts in high school have the option of wearing a scarf that unites their look with that of Girl Scout sisters around the world. Girl Scouts at the Daisy and Brownie levels have a full uniform ensemble available. For adult members, the unifying look is an official Girl Scout scarf (or tie for men) worn with official membership pins and combined with their own navy blue business attire.
