We played games with Do this do that, Sleeping Hedgehogs, Duck, duck, goose and Dusty Bluebells being favourites. We took part in a Sponsored Walk in Lurgan Park and girls enjoyed being out in the open. Girls made edible fireworks from Chocolate fingers dipped in sprinkles, played a game when the girls had to pretend they were fireworks by crouching down then jumping up as if they were rockets or making circles with their hands pretending they were sparklers. Christmas Cards and Decorations were made and girls enjoyed their Christmas party to end the year. Girls completed 'Ocean Challenge'...one activity was to make an Octopus by spreading cream on a bun and sticking on 8 jelly sweets as 'tentacles. They also enjoyed an 'Amazing Animals, challenge and 'Lets get active, challenge. Before Easter we made Bunny Masks and edible Easter Bonnets. On our last evening all the girls enjoyed a MCD'S Happy Meal. Four of our girls are moving up to Brownies in September and we hope they continue to enjoy their Guiding journey.
