At our last meeting before the holiday the girls had a great time playing with snow indoors. First we created snow women. We split the girls into two groups and asked them to pick a "stander." Once the stander was chosen we gave them two rolls of toilet paper and a hat, mittens and buttons that we made out of felt. They then had to create a snow women out of their materials. They had so much fun and made some very creative snow women.
After we were done making the girls into snow women we turned the tables on our junior leader. The girls had a blast making her into a snow woman.
Next we had a "snowball fight." We split the girls into two more groups and gave them equal amounts of pom poms. We put our two large plastic bowls in the middle of the two groups. The girls were asked to get as many pom poms as possible in their bowls. We talked about winning, losing, being honest and fair and what a good sport is. At the end of the game the girls ended up with the same amount of pom poms in their bowls - so everyone won!
We ended the meeting with a great snack and Christmas music dance party. Dance parties are our thing now. We are all great dancers.
We are going to dive into our Earth and Sky book at the next meeting. Can't wait! Have a great vacation everyone and see you all soon.
