So it seemed like this happened forever ago and I am just now getting to it to blog about it. Better late than never, right? Lauren joined Girl Scouts this year and she absolutely loves it. I was able to get her into a troop at another school, where one of her best friends is a Girl Scout.
I think the Girl Scouts are such an amazing program for little girls. It teaches them so many life values that Lauren will carry on forever. There are also so many fun activities, meetings, cookies, and camping. Lauren is the most excited about the camping part. She can't wait to go camping in the spring.
We spent one afternoon at the Girl Scout campground about a month ago. The girls learned everything they needed to know about camping...from fire safety, to cooking, to hiking, to cleaning toilets, and several other things.
This is Lauren with her friend Cassidy.
All the kids were begging to clean the toilets!
We cooked smores at the end. The wind and the fire were a little scary at times for Lauren.
She absolutely loved the afternoon we spent out at the campground. It was a perfect time for the two of us and I am very excited for the spring when we have our overnight trip.
The leader also incorporated a lesson into the day, that way the girls could earn a badge for the day! Lauren loves her vest with all the badges that she has earned already!
