Thinking Day
We will spend
two meetings in February and March celebrating Thinking Day.
February 22nd, Thinking Day, is the day each year that we celebrate the diversity of scouts all
across the world - where we celebrate the millions of sisters we share across
all continents.
Once again, each PATROL will present a LOT of information
representing their chosen country.
Following is a list of the countries we have chosen:
the Hawaiian Lei Patrol will teach us about Thailand
the KABBAM Patrol will teach us about Ecuador
the Star of Bethlehem Patrol will teach us about Italy
Each Patrol is expected to be able to teach us the following:
| Flag | |
| Location on a globe and on a map | |
| WAGGGS | Motto - in native language and translated Law - in native language and translated Promise - in native language and translated Levels Uniforms - photos, draw, make |
| Culture | Songs Music Games Native Dress - examples Buildings - materials and style - example |
| Language | Count to 10 Hello Good-bye Thank You You're Welcome |
| Food | Native Recipe List of common foods List of foods unavailable |
| Current Events | |
| Female Leaders | Past and present |
| A Day in the Life | Story about a "regular day" |
| Travel Advertisement | |
| Packing List | |
| Passport "Stamp" |
This year, we will go a little more in depth - learning more about fewer countries as we work on Thinking Day countries in our patrols. Once again, we will conclude our Thinking Day Celebration with what will be our 6th Annual International Food Festival.
