And another term ends
Mar. 18th, 2016 07:31 pmA short half term, but with Easter rapidly approaching and next Thursday being the end of school term (with one of our main schools finishing the day before), it felt like a good idea to finish early.
Last week we had a games night. As ever we began with Pink Knickers and then we split the Brownies into two teams. Each team had to cross the hall using four sheets of newspaper and getting all 9 in their team across. It took them some time to work out how to do it. And then we took out one of our Thoughts Balls. The balls have thoughts on them like "I feel sad when .." or "I like doing .." It's a good way of getting them to listen to each other as they throw the ball between themselves.
We finished with enrolling two new Brownies, both of whom are keen and had learnt their Promise and Law, even though one was nervous, so we said the Law altogether.
This week we made Easter Bunnies out of socks and I demonstrated why I'm not very good at crafts. Nevertheless the Brownies all made a bunny, even if some of them refused to stand up (the bunnies that is, not the Brownies).

And now we have three weeks to recuperate and recharge!
