Daisy Girl Scout Activities

Daisy Girl Scout Song - (to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star)
Daisy Scouts are bright and gay,
See us work, and see us play.
We can dance, and we can sing.
We can do most anything.
We have fun, and help each day.
Daisy Scouts are here to stay.

Did You Ever See A Daisy?
Did you ever see a Daisy, a Daisy, a Daisy?
Did you ever see a Daisy, a Daisy Girl Scout?
Go this way and that way, and that way and this way.
Did you ever see a Daisy, a Daisy Girl Scout?

Daisy Girl Scout SWAP - Girl Scout Sparkle
Supplies: glitter, clear packing tape, printer paper, computer
Instructions: Print out "GIRL SCOUTS SPARKLE" and your troop number in a nice and small font. Have the girl’s cut them into a small circle shape (about 1" in diameter). Then pull out about 6" of clear packing tape and sprinkle 1/2 of it with sparkle confetti. Put message face down on the unsprinkled half and fold the tape on top of itself and it self seals. Then cut around the circles.

Pom-pom Creature Ring
Supplies: pipe cleaners, 1/4 - inch pompom balls, small wiggly eyes, glue
Instructions: Cut the pipe cleaners in half. Measure the pipe clearer around the finger that you want to wear it on and twist the ends together once around. Make a 90-degree angle with the ends to the circle and then bend the ends toward you. Bend the very tips of the pipe cleaner over so you won't get cut on them. Put a dab of
glue on the part that you twisted and place the pompom there. The ends that you bent toward you should come up around the pompom to make ears. Glue the wiggly eyes onto the pompom.

Daisy Girl Scout Craft - Rainbow Streamer
Supplies: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple crepe paper streamers, a paper plate for each child, scissors, stapler
Instructions: Cut the center out of a paper plate. Cut long pieces of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple crepe paper streamers. Each streamer should be about two to three feet long. Staple a rainbow of streamers onto the paper plate. You now have a Rainbow Streamer.

Friendship Plate
Supplies: glue, scissors, construction paper, paper plates, markers, yarn
Instructions: Cut construction paper into petal shapes. Glue petals around paper plates. Write the troop number in the center of the plate. Each girl can sign one petal of each other's daisy friendship plate. Attach yarn to hang.

Daisy Girl Scout Activity - Earn the Daisy Petal for Courageous and Strong
Play a game called emotions. It requires the girls to pick out of a hat a piece of paper that has an emotion on it (i.e., happy, sad, mad, glad, excited, hurt, etc.). Next, each girl will stand in front of the group and act out the emotion without talking. If your girls are shy, it could take quite a bit of courage to stand up there and do that in front of everyone. Another cute idea is to have a fashion show that requires the girls to get up in front of the group. You could also visit the local fire department and interview the firefighters. Make a growth chart for the girls to take home and keep a measurement of themselves.

Giggle Gertie
Supplies: handkerchief
Instructions: Girls get in a circle with one in the center. The one in the center laughs and tosses the handkerchief in the air. The whole group laughs. Everyone must laugh until the handkerchief hits the ground. Then everyone must become silent and expressionless. Anyone still smiling or laughing is out.

Daisy Girl Scout Ceremony - Daisy Poem
This is a simple ceremony that the girls could do at the opening/closing of every meeting. Have girls recite this poem.
I'm a Daisy standing tall (stand tall).
I'm a Daisy, friend to all (wave to friends).
I'm a Daisy, helping every day (hands out, palms up).
Living my life in the Girl Scout way (give Girl Scout sign).

Seven Daisies in a Week
Supplies: post for each girl to hold with day of week written on it inside a Daisy. (e.g.: Sun-daisy) If you have more than seven girls, let on read and one hold the Daisy.

SUN-DAISY: My name is Sun-Daisy, and we're here to speak about Juliette Low and Girl Scout Week. Just before Civil War, Juliette was born in Savannah, Georgia on
October 31st.

MON-DAISY: Daisy was her nickname throughout her living days. She loved games and writing and performing in plays. When Daisy grew up, she began the Girl Guides. Her first troop was in Scotland, with seven girls by her side.

TUES-DAISY: Daisy sailed to America; March 12 was the day she started a troop called Girl Scouts U.S.A. Eighteen girls met with Daisy, very eager to start to make
uniforms and badges, each doing her part.

WEDNES-DAISY: Daisy spoke of the law for all Scouts to learn, and told of requirements for badges to earn. The troop went on hikes along nature trails, watching
birds of all kinds and recording details.

THURS-DAISY: Sports were important to keep the girls fit; basketball was the first game to become a big hit. Daisy told the girls of camping under the stars shining bright.
Destination...Camp Lowlands, the first Scout campsite.

FRI-DAISY: For the rest of her life Daisy spread the word 'round to millions of girls, in town after town. Shortly after her death a World Friendship fund began to honor
this grand lady and her work throughout the land.

SATUR-DAISY: Each year we partake in a friendship celebration with Scouts 'round the world and with great dedication. We'll remember Juliette Low of who
we will speak, for we're proud to be Daisies each day of the week.
