Sarah & Shelly are excited about starting their last year at Brownies. Brown Owl used the new brownie book whilst on their unit holiday over the Summer when they had great fun completing the Adventure, Adventure On & More Adventures Fun & games pages; and then wiping them clean for their Brownie friend’s to try. Brown Owl explained they would still work on “You”, “Community”, & the “World” but the new book is much more fun & exciting for them.

Brown Owl said “the new brownies would start their Adventure with ways to keep their Promise, get help to choose an interest badge, take part in loads of fun and challenges about being safe and secure, join in a pow wow and go on a special Adventure”

The older Brownies can help plan their Adventures On badge, have their own challenges like making a special light for Diwali & finding out about global grub.” Adventure On means we can help make decisions and will be our own record keepers, so we can show our parents what we do at Brownies” said Sarah.

The oldest brownies will have fun doing the More Adventures badge, when we do an interest badge we will be challenged to learn something new and when we go on an Adventure we will help other brownies. “We will do “Brownies Go For It!” to learn all about what Guides do and we will plan our own celebration to remember our exciting time at Brownies” said Shelly.

Sarah & Shelly are very excited as they can even choose challenges to do at home so they can have even more fun at Brownies, whilst achieving the Adventure, Adventure On & More Adventures pretty badges. ”The Brownie Adventure is all about how we can use our ideas at Brownies to make sure we discover, we grow” said Sarah.
