How to Use This Catalog

 

For Brownie Girl Scouts (girls in 2nd and 3rd grades), there are 60 different Try-It awards, where girls do just that, .try it!. And then see if it’s something they want to learn more about

Junior Girl Scouts (girls in 4th and 5th grades) have 117 badges available to guide them to explore and discover subjects that pique their interest or even more about something they were exposed to in a Try-It.

In Studio 2B, Girl Scouting for girls 11-17,girls are usually grouped by ages--'teens, teens or young adults-since a 17 year-olds interests and concerns are quite different from a 12 year-olds. There are 87 Interest Project patches and 18 Focus Books, with two new ones out this year, to help girls discover in-depth, who they really are and who they want to be. Additionally, girls at this level can earn the Girl Scout Gold and Silver Awards, the highest achievement awards in Girl Scouting.
