Did you know that on 3/3/33 your Daisy troop will be 11th or 12th grade Ambassador Scouts? 

I have a fun way for your troop to celebrate now and then again later!

This Girl Scout Daisy Time Capsule Meeting for Thirds Day 3.3.33 is one where your troop will create a special box of memories to be opened when they are teenagers. March 3, 2033 takes place on a Thursday, so it will be Thirds Day! It is another special numerical palindrome that your scouts will get to celebrate.

Included in this resource are:

• A list of activities you can do with your troop to prepare your time capsule
• Ideas to make your time capsule
• Two "All About me" pages
• A Troop Signature page
• A letter to their Future Ambassador Scout page

Girl Scouts will gather in Washington, DC, in July 2026 to celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States—the semi-quin-cen-ten-nial. But how did they celebrate the 200th? That’s the theme of the latest display at the Nation’s Capital Council offices in Washington DC. Official Girl Scout Bicentennial Patches Red, white, and blue appeared all over […]

Giving girls jobs keep them actively involved with every troop meeting. Here is the easiest Girl Scout Kaper chart that leaders will use for years!

Over the years, I have written extensively about Girl Scout Kaper charts (you can check out those posts here).

Recently, a leader in a Girl Scout Facebook group recently shared her version of a kaper chart, and it is mic drop genius!

I remember schlepping my large poster board kaper chart in from Daisies until 5th grade Juniors. In bad weather, I had to put it in a black garbage bag so it would not get ruined. It was one more large thing to juggle, along with my leader bag and bags of craft, cooking, or other materials for the meeting. Since we met after school, my daughter could not help me and my co-leader was coming straight from work.

This Girl Scout Kaper chart is not a chart, is easy to carry into each meeting, and is a low out of pocket (and reimbursable) expense.

Cookie sales are in full swing across many parts of the country. One way to jazz up your cookie boxes and bags is to use these four free Girl Scout cookie box tags to thank your customers.

There are four designs, including:

One for Daisy Scouts

One for Brownie Scouts

One for Junior Scouts

One multi-purpose tag that can be used for multi-level troops, older scouts, and any level of scouts.

How Can Leaders Use Free Girl Scout Cookie Thank You Printables?

You can go to your local Office Max or Staples and have copies run off for your troop. Hand the girls a few pages of each appropriate tag for them to glue or donut tape to the box. This is good for walkabouts.

These tags can be stapled to shopping bags if people are buying large quantities at your booth or when delivering pre-orders.

Every year on February 22nd, Girl Scouts and Girl Guides around the world take part in a global tradition that’s been going strong for a full century: World Thinking Day.

It’s a day for learning about the lives of girls in countries around the world, exploring cultures, and celebrating the global sisterhood we’re all part of. What began in 1926 as a moment to “think of each other” has grown into an important annual celebration where girls explore important issues. Through World Thinking Day, millions of girls step into their role as confident global citizens, leading with curiosity, courage, and compassion.

As we mark 100 years of World Thinking Day, we’re celebrating the 2026 theme, Our Friendship, by spotlighting moments from across the movement that show what global connection looks like in action. Get inspired, get curious, and celebrate in your own way.

World Thinking Day is all about learning, connecting, and taking part in a tradition millions of girls have shared for 100 years, while continuing to imagine, shape, and build what comes next together. You can celebrate in any way that feels meaningful to you: trying an activity connected to the theme, learning about another part of the world, doing something kind for your community, or simply sharing a photo that highlights what friendship means. Check out the World Thinking Day activity guide and this year’s award and start planning your celebration your way!

Volunteers at any organization seek training, open communications, proper training and equipment, and above all--respect. You can't do it without us.
