Healthy Heart Badge and Agility

We've spent 2 weeks doing our Healthy Heart Badge and Agility Badges.  Because we are low in number but high in ratio's to the help we have, we have been able to give a good amount of time to the girls to allow them to do the 2  badges.  They've worked hard and done well.  

Was interesting to see how well some of them can hula hoop and skip and we spent time using our under arms and over arms throws.  

It was very interesting to see what they considered healthy to eat and what they consider is the best way to keep your heart healthy.  We also spent time talking about when you take medication and food allergies.  It was interesting to hear from the girls who do have food allergies, as to how it affects them and what they need to take or do if they do eat it.

A New Term

It's a new term...

Our first week back saw a Pow Wow.  The girls liked the idea of a tea party to finish the term.  In all the craziness of parties, it's funny how they want party games and old fashioned tea parties.  

We also decided to do Pizza Making and some sporty things.  We've managed to do the Healthy Heart Badge.  We're doing Agility next.  I've adapted it slightly to include all our unit including those who have mobility problems.  

We're having another trip to The Risk Factory too, where we will do Crime Prevention and Home Safety badges too.  

We're having to close one week because we have no leaders.  Unfortunately our real lives dictate our presence elsewhere and after a discussion, we didn't want to leave other guiders with the girls.  

So it's a short but busy term.
