Sock exchanges are a great alternative to a holiday grab bag and a ton of fun. Girls can choose a name from a hat and be able to choose a special pair of socks for the person they picked or everyone can buy a pair of holiday socks and the troop can do a fun left right game. There are a lot of ways to have fun with a sock exchange and this colorful Sock Exchange patch from MakingFriends®.com makes a great addition to any scout vest to remember the fun.

Ugly sweater parties are a great theme for a troop holiday party. Encourage your scouts to create their own ugly sweaters with bows, garland, tinsel, ornaments or any fun holiday decorations. The Ugly Sweater patch from MakingFriends®.com will be a fun reminder of a silly celebration and make everyone smile.
