The Diversity of Celebration
Have you ever looked at the back of embroidered fabric? Try it – you’ll see there are tons of individual threads of every color and size. They’re each beautiful in their own way, but there’s no discernible image or pattern until you turn the fabric over. That’s how Girl Scouts works too! We’re made up of so many different members who are all beautiful and unique in their own way and together, each of these threads makes us stronger. There are tons of fun ways to celebrate our diversity this month. Want to teach girls about different religious holidays? Here are some upcoming holidays and what you can do with your girls. December 8 th – Bodhi Day (Buddhist) is a celebration of Buddha’s enlightenment. Teach your girls about meditation. Play relaxing music, encourage girls to be silent for several minutes, light candles and create colorful decorations.
