Art badge update!

Thanks to Nina, Kira, Lila, Lucy, Ava, Emma, Annabel, Maisy, Rowan, and Lyra for coming to today's meeting!  Today, we used the themes of art and the first part of the Girl Scout Law - trying to be honest and fair.

We used different art media to complete a still life of a basket with flowers, talked about colors and emotions, shared examples of being honest and fair, sang the songs Make New Friends and Linger, and viewed some famous artwork from Monet, Degas, Picasso, Rivera, and others!

We completed these badge requirements:

Daisies: The light blue petal (flower friend is Lupe the Lupine).  If you want more activities to reinforce with your girl, click this link.

Brownies:  We worked on the Painting badge.  Please see the Girl's Guide to Girl Scouts for additional activities.  We finished:

1. Look at paintings
2. Complete a still life
3. Complete a sticky note with emotions
4. Use different objects to paint

To complete this badge, the girls should do a mural.  We should have a chance to do that at our next meeting.

Juniors:  We worked on the Drawing badge.  Please see the Girl's Guide to Girl Scouts for additional activities.  We finished:

1. Create a still life with different media
2. Begin a portfolio with your work

I will send another note about upcoming meetings during the school year, but it seemed like a rotation of Saturdays and Sundays would work best for most folks.  Our next meeting is August 29 from 10-11:30am at TBPS.  See you there!

PS: Please see the first blog posting for information on registering, uniforms, etc.
