UK Parliament Week 2019 (2-8 Nov)

Can't believe it's that time again - my pack arrived yesterday- well both packs arrived yesterday, either I registered twice or I have received 2 packs by accident! This year as well as the usual bunting, voting box and pin badges, the pack includes some wrist bands which I think the brownies will really appreciate. South West England have once again put together a special edition activity pack. They have managed to improve on last years pack, there are more and larger colour photos than last year; and there is more of a focus on evaluation & debate with ideas on how to take up and down for the relevant age groups.

I particularly like the activity on page 18 (see photo below) which will appeal to all age sections with choices that will mean something to each one. Page 21 & 22 "UK Parliament Week in your pocket" is a good idea that could be adapted to a range of themes and even used for trainings and picks up the idea of conversation starters to take it even further. Page 25 is always a winner with a template for a Cootie catcher, which again are always well received with girls of all ages, and its not an easy topic to create excitement with! Not a mention of Brexit in sight which is itself an achievement.
