Daisy Circle:

Part 1: World Thinking Day- Mexico

Find USA on the globe; find Mexico on the globe (if I can find one :)

What do we know about Mexico? Foods they eat? Clothes they wear? Holidays they celebrate?

What things do girl scouts in Mexico do that we do here in the United States?



Talk about Mexico scouting info sheets (attached)



ACTIVITY: Play a Mexican childrens CD- dance!!



Part 2: Rose- Make the world a better place

We're part of the world, Mexico is part of the world- the world is a big place. Can we help the world, even if we’re small? How?



Recycling

Planting flowers, plants, trees

Saving energy

Using resources wisely is in our Law- what does that mean?

Being kind

Helping others is part of our Law- how might that help the world?



Activity: Plant a seed.

Closing:
Do Daisy Hands, friendship squeeze.

Ask girls to say a wish for the world & then send their squeeze around the circle.

“1-2-3 Goodbye Daisies!”



Pass out Rose Petal (Make the world a better place)
