Engaging Juniors with Leadership and Skill-Building
For Junior Girl Scouts (typically in 4th and 5th grade), activities transition from simple crafts to more complex, girl-led projects that foster independence and community impact. At this level, scouts are eligible to earn the Bronze Award, the highest honor a Junior can achieve, which encourages them to team up and solve a problem in their community. Troop leaders often focus on skill-building badges or engaging in hands-on STEM and outdoor adventures like camping. To keep this age group engaged, it is helpful to incorporate “fun patches” for everyday achievements.
Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook. We have a helpful community of more than 22,000 leaders who are always ready to help. You don’t want to miss the coupons either!
