Today we visited my sister at her library and we’re planning to earn a fun patch, but instead Juliette got to enjoy storytime (my sister is really good with the kids!), deliver Girl Scout cookies to several of my sister’s coworkers, play in the children’s room, and go out to lunch with her. Cub had…

Juliette did NOT earn a new badge! This is not a drill! Yes, I’m goofing around, but these posts are usually about earned badges. Instead, this time it’s all about the booth… and several patches… unless she earns a badge in the next couple of days lol. (Update: she didn’t, but she did 2 weeks…

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve posted. Part of it is that Juliette hasn’t earned much in that time, but another part of it is that sickness and life got in the way. Another Petal Since I last wrote, Juliette earned the Respect Authority petal. We mainly utilized the Daisy Handbook for this one.…

This past weekend, Juliette attended her first Cookie Rally! It was fun for her AND her little brother (maybe I should call him “Cub” because he likes bears and will most likely join Boy Scouts when old enough – he’s 2.5 years old so we haven’t decided for sure yet). It was a council event…

This week has been pretty busy in Girl Scouts but also not busy at all because most of what we did was also schoolwork. Juliette completed her first Take Action project which means she finished her first journey!!! She also earned a petal and, since she kept asking to do STEM Sisters, she did the…

After her last petal, Juliette wanted to keep working on earning badges, but we had already signed her up for a program put on by Ambassador Girl Scout Troop 11302 in California to raise money for travel. She attended their virtual Global Action Award program. Global Action Award Although this program was open to Girl…

Since returning from our vacation, Juliette has been eager to continue working on her Girl Scout badges. She also wants to work on fun patches so I had to explain the difference between the two. Once she realized that the fun patches were for the back of her smock, she decided that she wanted to…

For the past few weeks, our family has been happily enjoying a trip of a lifetime including cross-country train rides to and from a cruise to Hawaii and Mexico. Over that time, Juliette was able to work on a variety of fun patches and several Daisy badges. Queen Liliʻuokalani and Other Hawaii Council Patches Before…

A few days ago, Juliette asked to earn her next badge, so we continued through the Girl Scout Law to start the next petal, Friendly and Helpful. When I looked at the requirements and the plan in the volunteer toolkit, they looked more appropriate for a troop than for an individually registered member, so I…

Juliette decided that she wanted to earn the light blue petal next, Honest and Fair. This badge made me realize just how much each of the action plans are geared to troops and that I should really ask my parents how they led our troops in the late 80s and early 90s before the internet.…
