What a
wonderful meeting. Ms. B was our special
guest and she discussed what SHE did as a Brownie and even brought her old
uniforms. It brought a smile to my face to hear the girls eager to explain what
they do to her and compare badges. As a leader I was seeing any one of our
Brownies talking 20 years in the future to special Brownies they know about
what they did and showing off their uniforms and badges.
This is what I will think about as I plan meetings. Will this make for a memorable learning moment when it is all said and done? The only memory I still don’t foresee our girls having is TENT camping as a Brownie…..at least I am not going to be sleeping in the tent~J

Ms. B also
stayed with us to complete another part of our Journeys Badge….Connections to
other Brownies. We made photo cubes
using photos from our lasts events. I am
sure your Brownie has shown you hers by now.
I will bring the photos to the next meeting as well and the girls may take
home any they would like.
Our second project was a little foreshadowing of things to come. I prepared a sample of t-shirt rings to have each girl participate in making a scarf for Ms. B as a thank you for joining us. Each girl joined 3 rings by tying them together. She then worked with the other Brownies at her table to connect all of their rings. Once that was done they joined the rings strands from each table together making one long scarf. The results were fantastic. I know the girls are now really excited to make their own scarf’s in January!

Please read the following note to your Brownie:
Mrs.
Winkler,
Thank
you so very much for allowing me to come in and share! I had a fantastic time and absolutely love
the scarf. I wore it to school today to
keep me warm with this December weather that is fast approaching, and even got
a chance to get a picture with all of the Ames
girls with myself wearing the scarf (a much better picture than just me).
These
brownies have a special place in my heart always and it was definitely a
memorable experience!
Thank
you again,
Miss B.
