Girl Scouts World Thinking Day




Learning some dances from Japan and other countries.

Snack time!

Crafts!

Learning about Spain.

Learning about Iran. They grow pistachio's there....Daddy's favorite!

Chile.....the Andes Mountains are there.

Holding a belt made of fish spine bones from Kenya....now THAT'S recycling!!!

Origami from Japan!

The country of Haiti.

Trading "swaps" with the other Girl Scout troops.

Reagan and her swaps she got at Thinking Day.
Girl Scout World Thinking Day is a day where the troops choose a country and set up a display to describe the country and about how they do Girl Scouts in their country. The booths each had a sample of a food or treat from their country to taste.. Tasting all of the foods and treats was a huge hit with the girls!
Each girl creates 10 "swaps" to bring and at the end of a GS event they trade with a member of another troop. Reagan's troop didn't do a booth this year but they enjoyed learning about all of the countries and swapping charms with the other girls.
