It's Your Story - Tell It!


Let's get thinking and brainstorming... 

What can we do as a Troop for our selected Journey:
It's Your Story - Tell It!

What kind of Field Trips, Special Events or Outings would you like to partake in?
Animal Shelter, Zoo, Farm, Nature Center, Library, Hiking Adventure, Museum, or Guest Speakers

What kind of Activities are you interested in?
Building a Birdbath, Crafts from Nature, Sustainable Projects, or Family Events

 It's Your Story - Tell It! explores many important themes, such as developing a strong sense of self, learning about the benefits of a balanced diet and physical activity, navigating healthy relationships, identifying ways to express yourself, and promoting well-being and confidence in others.


AMUSE!
Think of all the roles a girl may have… as a girl, a student, and a Girl Scout Junior. She may also be a singer, writer, athlete, chef, money manager, tech whiz, painter, fashion stylist—but there’s still so much more to her story! On this Journey, you will guide the girls through the chance to imagine being an Olympic athlete, a jet pilot, a professional dancer, or a crime-solving detective. • She will consider what it would be like to run a fashion magazine, and be the one who decides what clothes to photograph? Along the aMUSE Journey, girls will try on roles to see how these roles might change HER story, make her feel stronger and help her to walk and talk more confidently. • This journey called aMUSE is all about stories. It’s also all about girls having fun trying on roles, and being a leader who stretches herself to play new parts—to be the person who turns acting into action, by inspiring others toward their best roles ever! Inspiring others for the better—that’s the story of Girl Scouts!

A WORLD A WORLD OF GIRLS! 
This journey starts with the first Brownie story! Even the name “Brownies” comes from a story. Brownies were elves who did good deeds while people slept. Like fairies, they were tiny, and people usually didn’t see them. In one famous old story, a Brownie asks children to do good deeds on their own. That way people wouldn’t need the magic of Brownies during the night. The Girl Scouts make that story their own. Now Brownie Elf and Grandmother Elf encourage ordinary girls to do extraordinary things.

 AMAZING ANIMAL ADVENTURE! 
Creative Expression is one of the best ways to strengthen young girls’ self-esteem. So along this journey, the Daisies create and add to three big animal-themed projects built right into the sessions. • TEAM ANIMAL can also serve as a color backdrop for the Daisy gathering. Bring it back out for the final ceremony, or present it to incoming Daisies as an invitation to this animal-filled journey. • TEAM BIRD BATH stores all the animal-care ideas the girls learn along the journey. • ALL ABOUT ME NESTS gives each girl a place to keep items that show how she cares for herself on this journey and in life. 
These projects let the Daisies express themselves and experiment, lift up one another through encouragement and teamwork and have fun and let their creativity flow!
