Scout Kindness Keeper
Every time your scout does a good deed, she glues on a flower. When all done, she can make her Kindness Keeper into a crown or a belt.
Program Ideas
Welcome, Leaders! Whether you just signed your first registration form or you’ve been leading a troop for over a decade, you know that keeping a scouting program fresh, engaging, and meaningful is quite a balancing act. From the foundational Daisy Promise to the prestigious Gold Award, our mission is to provide you with the resources, crafts, and guidance you need to make every meeting a success. Explore our grade-specific guides below to find everything from badge-earning activities to troop-tested community service projects.
Beyond the Basics: Building a Custom Experience
While outdoor adventures and entrepreneurial skills are part of the foundation, your troop’s program is truly defined by the unique paths your girls choose to take. As they grow from Brownies to Cadettes and beyond, their interests evolve into high-impact areas like STEM, advocacy, and global citizenship. That’s why our Program Ideas are designed to scale with your girls, ensuring that your projects remain relevant, challenging, and exciting for their specific age group.
