World Thinking Day 2012

Happy World Thinking Day!

This year, we visited a shop that sells natural and sustainably grown fibers. It was interesting to see the differences in materials. We were surprised to discover that bamboo is made into a fiber and can be quite soft.

Square Dancing!

Tonight we went to the Square Dancing program sponsored by our council. It was a lot of fun! There were a lot of people there. We had to listen carefully to follow what the caller was saying. They had awesome snacks!

Bridging Presentation

Today I visited a Brownie troop and made a presentation about Juniors for my "Bridging to Cadettes" award. The girls and leaders were interested in hearing about the badges, activities and awards I received so far as a Junior Girl Scout.

Sewing 2

Today was the Sewing 2 program through our council. We learned how to make a skirt with an elastic waist. I picked material that was pink camo and peace signs. It turned out good!
