Check out these fun ways to explore the Girl Scout Program -- created just for girls!

Girls Speak Out! Girls can submit their own idea for a PSA about an issue that’s important to them. Everyone can vote on their favorites; the PSA concept that gets the most votes has a chance to be produced professionally. Check out the action at http://speakout.girlscouts.org/

Badge Explorer Tool has been launched to help girls get excited about the new badges. Follow the link: http://forgirls.girlscouts.org/home/badges/

World Thinking Day 2012

Each year on February 22, Girl Guides and Girl Scouts all over the world celebrate World Thinking Day. It’s a day when Girl Guides and Girl Scouts think of each other and give thanks and appreciation for the international friendship they find in girl scouting.

The theme for World Thinking Day 2012 is “we can save our planet”, based on UN Millennium Development Goal 7: environmental sustainability. On this website you’ll find activity ideas, information about the theme, and lots of resources.
