Participating in cookie activities allow girls to create their own
experiences, reflect on them, and apply what they learn to new
challenges. This learning cycle builds courage to try new things and
gives girls the desire to continue on the journey to Discover, Lead and
Take Action In the Girl Scout Leadership Program.

This is a new patch from WAGGGS...a perfect program to tie in with World
 Thinking Day and the beginning of the 100th Anniversary of WAGGGS (a
three year celebration beginning April 10, 2009).
Download your packet and begin planning. Just a heads up, WAGGGS patches usually sell out quickly...don't wait to long to order them. The Global Action Theme Badge curriculum is an activity pack created to help children and young people learn about the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) then take action on the issues that affect them and their communities. Containing over 100 activities set across three levels (Basic, Advanced and Specialist), Member Organizations are encouraged to choose specific activities for each MDG. http://www.wagggsworld.org/en/grab/3450/1/GATcurriculumENG.pdf http://www.wagggsworld.org/en/grab/3335/2/GATguidelinesEng.pdf May 5, 2009

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place. Looking to the next century of service, the 100th Anniversary Campaign will provide the vital resources to ensure that Girl Scouts continues to inspire, challenge and empower girls to be leaders through programs that are compelling, contemporary and relevant in the 21st century.
