Information to Parents:
Parents,
This is the start-up packet for your daughter’s year in
Brownies.
Please fill out the permission slip and “Families Make it
Happen!” form and get them back to me before our October meeting. We will need
both before we can take the girls to Wilson’s Apple Orchard. If I can manage to
figure it out, I’ll put the sheets on our blog too. (If you’re like me, it’ll
go into an “important stack” of papers only to be found after the trip!)
Also, I have enclosed a copy of your daughter’s Brownie
Badge Log. The badges under the blue heading have five requirements each. All
can be found in their Brownie binder. I have circled the ones that your
daughter has earned so far. If she has completed any that are not circled,
please let me know asap! I keep an identical copy to help when it comes time to
order badges. The girls will choose to do several as a group but if your
daughter completes one on her own, that’s great too! Just let me know so she
gets credit. In an effort to foster confidence, we are hoping the girls can
give the group a brief talk about how they fulfilled each step. We will then
have a little ceremony to award her the badge.
The second page contains badges under a pink heading. These
are badges that are part of a defined Girl Scout program called “Journeys” and
they are meant to be done over the course of the year. Several leaders have
suggested these are too much like school work for the girls. However, some of
the badges can be done independently of the Journey’s program. If any, or all,
of the girls find them to be interesting, we could always order the packets
that contain the steps for the badges. I have listed them on the second page of
the log.
Finally, look for a sign up genius for meeting snacks in the
days ahead. If your daughter helps, she could earn a step toward the Snacks
Badge as well. J
As always, let me know if you have questions. Our blog has
been updated since the pancake breakfast and includes photos of our swim party.
I hope to have another update after our first meeting letting you know what
they’ve accomplished.
