[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP again -- it's like No Child Left Behind took over the Girl Scouts. http://www.girlscouts.org/research/pdf/gsle_asset_map_2012.pdf There's not a single "Outcome" listed that is any tangible skill or activity -- like "Girl Scouts will learn to build a fire, cook a meal, bait a hook, tie a knot, paddle a canoe." It's all a bunch of touchy feely jargon to help find grant money for programs. YUCK! [/quote] That's what has been bothering me about the Girl Scouts. I also do Cub Scouts and I love the books. I may reuse my son's old Tiger book and adapt the activities for the Journeys for my Daisys. I believe that tangible and real skill activities are important.[/quote]
