1 GirlTime! Girl Scout Summer Fun Explore Nature

2 Welcome to girltime! Hello Girl Scout Daisy! I hope that you are having fun this summer getting messy with science experiments, playing games and learning all about yoga and the 5 food groups. This month we are going to get outside and enjoy the rest of the summer weather with fun nature activities. As a Girl Scout Daisy, your Girl Scout troop may explore nature at one of our camps, get up close and personal with nature and then hit the trails for nature hikes. This GirlTime! issue is full of activities that you can do with your family or with your Girl Scout troop in nature. You can also enjoy these activities during the fall as the weather starts to change. Note to Daisy Parents: Join your Girl Scout as she explores the world around her. As she gets up close with nature, she can use her brand new GirlTime! magnifying glass. Tell your Girl Scout when she sees this logo with an activity, to come and get your help. Who We Are As Girl Scouts As a Girl Scout you say the Girl Scout Promise and the Girl Scout Law. The Girl Scout Promise is the way Girl Scouts promise to act every day. The Girl Scout Law is how a Girl Scout is supposed to live her life. You keep the Girl Scout Promise by living the Girl Scout Law. The Girl Scout Promise and Law is said before every Girl Scout activity or event. The Girl Scout Promise On my honor, I will try: To serve God*, and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law. *When making the Girl Scout Promise, individuals may substitute wording appropriate to their own spiritual beliefs for the word God. The Girl Scout Law I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.

3 Nature Explorer NOW is a great time to be outside discovering nature. Use a magnifying glass. What does it do? A magnifying glass lets you see things up close. Nature Match Match the nature picture with the word then write the number on the line next to it s name. Sun 1 2 Rainbow 4 3 Flower Fire Cloud Raindrops 8 Tree Leaf Moon and Stars Rain Lightning Puddle Bush Forest

4 Take a Color Hike How many different colors can you find in nature? Write or draw something below that you find outside in nature for each color. The best way to explore nature is to get outside in your backyard or a park. Go outside and look for these natural items. Write down the name of the item and circle yes or no if you saw it outside during your exploration. Item It is a... (fill in the blank) Did you see it? (circle one) It is a YES NO It is a YES NO It is a YES NO It is a YES NO It is an YES NO 4

5 Trees Learn about the trees in your state! How many of these trees can you find where you live? You can identify a tree by its leaves. Use the leaf shapes below to help you identify these trees: Elm tree Locust tree Maple tree Oak tree Pine tree Color the tree picture Leaf shapes can help you identify trees. Go for a walk outside to see how many of these trees you can find in your neighborhood. Circle the leaves that you find. Maple leaf Elm leaves Pine needles Locust leaves Oak leaf and acorns 5

6 Leaf Art Gather your leaves! We ve got a lot of art projects featuring leaves, so when you are outside exploring, collect 3-4 different types of leaves to use for these projects. DAISY NOTE: Try not to pick leaves from the trees. Girl Scouts always try to Leave No Trace, which means we do not disturb nature and don t pick any leaves from trees. Instead, we look for leaves that have fallen to the ground. It is also okay to collect a leaf from a branch that has fallen from a tree. Leaf Rubbings Supplies: 3-4 different leaves, white copy paper, crayons Step 1: Gather leaves from outside. Your art project will look better if you find different types of leaves to use. Step 2: Lay your leaves on the table and cover them with a piece of white paper. Step 3: Hold down the paper on the table and color lightly, with your crayons, over the leaves which are under your paper. You will begin to see the imprint of the leaves. Step 4: Keep coloring until you have colored over all of your leaves. 6

7 Leaf Painting Supplies: yy 3-4 different leaves yy White copy paper yy Washable paint (any colors) yy Sponge paintbrushes (1 for each color) yy Plates for paint yy Tablecloth or newspaper for table yy Clothes you can get messy in Step 1: Gather leaves from outside or use the same leaves you used for the leaf rubbing activity. Step 2: Cover the table with a tablecloth or newspaper and put paint on the plates. Step 3: Paint one side of the leaf with any color paint. Step 4: Lay the leaf - paint side down - on the paper and press down gently. Step 5: Lift the leaf off the paper. You will see an imprint of the leaf on the paper in paint. Step 6: Continue until your paper is covered with painted leaf prints. DAISIES: Try using a different color for each leaf. Use your magnifying glass to look closely at the imprints. What do you see? *Make sure to wash your paintcovered hands when you re done! You can throw away your leaves after this art project. 7

8 Leaf Creatures Supplies: construction paper, glue, leaves, crayons, markers Step 1: Go outside and collect leaves of all different sizes, colors and shapes. Step 2: Look closely at the shape of your leaves and see if they look like any animals or people. See the examples to the left for ideas. Step 3: Lay the leaves out on your paper to look like animals or people. Step 4: Once you have them placed on the paper where you want, glue the leaves to the paper. Step 5: Let the glue and leaves dry then add eyes, faces, tails and bodies with crayons or markers. Draw your own leaf creature below. 8

9 Nature Imprints Use homemade play dough to make imprints of nature. The play dough will show the imprint of anything that you place it against. Here are some fun nature items to get imprints of: tree bark sticks leaves rocks plants Step 1: Make play dough or use some you already have. Step 2: Go outside and press the play dough against a rock, tree, leaf or stick. Step 3: Gently pull off the play dough and use your magnifying glass to look at the imprint left behind. Do not worry if there are small pieces of nature left in the play dough. What do you see in the play dough? Draw it here. Homemade Play Dough Supplies: y 1/2 cup salt y 1/2 cup flour y 1 cup water y 1 tbsp cream of tartar y Plastic gloves y Food dye (any color) y Tablecloth or newspaper y Spoon y Mixing bowl to mix ingredients y Plastic zip-top bag or plastic container to store the play dough DAISIES Wear gloves for this activity. Step 1: Pour the flour into the bowl. Step 2: Add salt and cream of tartar to the flour. Step 3: Pour in the water and gently mix with a spoon. Step 4: Once mixed, add a few drops of food coloring and use your hands to mix it completely. Step 5: Play with it for the nature imprint activity above. Store in a cool, dry place in a bag or resealable container. This play dough does not have to be cooked or heated. 9

10 As Girl Scouts, we always leave places we visit cleaner than how we found it and try to make the world a better place. How can you help take care of nature? Draw your ideas here. Butterfly Feeder When you can t go outside, bring nature to you! Make your own butterfly feeder and hang it outside of your window and watch the butterflies come and eat. Supplies: y Clear plastic potted plant base (see image) y Hole punch y Scissors y Yarn or string y Beads y Fresh fruit that is cut up: bananas, oranges, watermelon, strawberries Step 1: Have an adult hole-punch 4 sides of the clear plastic plant base. Step 2: Cut 4 pieces of yarn/string about 2 feet long. Tie all of the pieces together in a knot at one end and string beads on them at the ends. Step 3: After beading each yarn/string piece with beads halfway down, tie each piece of string through each separate hole and then hang up outside. Add fresh fruit every few days and watch the butterflies eat. 10

11 Sun Catchers From Nature Supplies: y Small sticks, leaves or flowers from nature y Clear contact paper y Paper plates y String y Scissors Step 1: Go outside and collect small items for your sun catcher. These could include small sticks, leaves, clovers and flowers. Step 2: Have an adult help you cut out the center of a paper plate. Step 3: Cut a piece of contact paper a little bigger than the paper plate circle. Step 4: Place the contact paper on the table sticky side up then lay your paper plate, back side down, over the contact paper and press down gently. The contact paper will stick to the plate. Step 5: Place the nature items onto the sticky side of the contact paper. Move them around until you ve created the artistic look that pleases you. Step 6: Poke a hole through the top of the plate and put a piece of string through the hole. Hang up your nature sun catcher in front of a window that gets direct sun. You can also use your magnifying glass to look closely at the items in your sun catcher. HEY DAISIES wouldn t a daisy flower be pretty in this project? 11

12 Observing Nature Pick one item from nature and look at it up close with your magnifying glass. What is it? What does it look and feel like? Fill in the blanks below. My object is a My object is (color). My object is rough or smooth. (circle one) Draw your object here: To help fulfill our mission to make the world a better place, we invite Girl Scouts to take part in an annual, council-wide service project. Girl Scouts all over the council will be able to participate in this project to make a lasting, positive impact on their communities. This year s project is to create no-sew T-shirt blankets to donate to those in need. This project is fun and inexpensive, and will allow girls to hand-craft beautiful and warm blankets. The T-shirts for these blankets may be donated by troop members, purchased from a thrift store, or your troop can collect T-shirts from the public as the first part of their project. This year, we are partnering with MedExpress, which will be collecting shirts that Girl Scouts can pick up and use. The project runs from until the end of September You can download a guide that includes instructions on making the blankets, how to share your pictures and stories with us, and how you can earn your Covered with Care patch for taking action and completing a community service report!
