Our Daisy Girl Scout year has officially begun! Prior to our first meeting, Madeline and I attended a SWAPS get together! A SWAP is a little handmade craft/object/token that the girls make up and well, swap with other troops! The girls pin them on their hats or carry them in a little tote. Cute stuff, y’all!
Remember Madeline’s babyhood friend, Kaylei Jo? Her troop is in our service unit so we will be able to attend a lot of activities together!
Madeline collected many swaps. The one she made and gave out is the daisy on the very top of her hat. She hot glued (with my help) a pom-pom onto a faux flower and attached a pin on the back.
We had our first meeting last week! I made this information board for our troop. It has lots of good info on it! We will be meeting at our church. I am so happy that they are so very generous!
Madeline was beside-herself-excited. She made name tags and set up a craft table by herself to keep the girls busy while I talked to their parents. I made them each a little notebook with their name on it and the G.S. Promise and Law decoupaged inside. During the meeting they each decorated a “treasure box” for all their Daisy treasures to come! They are a really sweet bunch of girls…so cute….and all so excited to be a Girl Scout! 6 little girls including Madeline. Perfect! :-) I didn’t take pics of the other girls to respect their privacy, but just imagine them sitting here looking all cute and sweet. :-)
I know we are going to have such a fun year!!!
