March 18, 2014 - It was a meeting packed with fun activities. To culminate the Puppetry Award the girls brought a common object from home to use for making noise that would represent a specific kind of sound in a show . They shared their object, made a sound (or a few) with them and discussed what the sound may represent. The girls were very creative with their choice of objects and coming up with what each sound could have been used for. It was loud, it was musical, it was fun! Can you guess what Kaylee's objects were?
To continue to work on their Money Management Award, they each brought a stuffed animal friend to trade with each other. They were responsible for taking care of it during the meeting. Through this, they learned stewardship. The girls discussed what makes each one of them a good manager, the things God entrust them with, and how they felt when entrusting their things to others.
With clear skies and a great temperature of just a little above 80, the girls had the opportunity to go outside to work on their Ancestor Detector Award. After learning the official rules of hopscotch, the girls made three groups and played hopscotch until their hearts were content. Later they discussed other games their ancestors may have played. Lastly, they enjoyed the playground, fun that our ancestors passed on.
April 29, 2014: Today the girls continued working on another part of the Ancestor Detector badge. They made their own kites and flew them in the play ground. It was a beautiful site to see the many girls running around as they made their kites fly as high as they could. It was a very exciting time for us all. After flying their kites, they learned the rules of the game Kick the Can and enjoyed playing that for a while before returning inside to take part in the closing ceremony. This was another day full of excitement for the American Heritage Girls.
