Secret Pal

Since there's so much time between yesterday's meeting and our next gathering on April 20, I thought it would be fun for the girls to do a little activity in between now and then--making a card to mail to a secret pal in the troop.

Yesterday each girl addressed an envelope to herself. We distributed these randomly at the end of the meeting. Between now and the next meeting, each girl should make a card and mail it to her secret pal.

We gave the girls the following guidelines:

• the card must fit inside the sealed envelope.
• it can be no heavier than 4 normal pieces of paper.
• they may not buy anything to use in making the card, but use things they already have at home.

This activity counts towards our Spring Green petal, the one focused on being considerate and caring.
