Girl Scout Brownies
Girl Scouts in Grades 2-3
Who are Brownies?
Brownies are fun-loving adventurers, stepping out of their family and school surroundings to learn more about themselves in relation to others.
The name "Brownie" is used in Girl Guide and Girl Scout organzations worldwide, and the Brownie program is part of the fabric of growing up in the United States.
Brownie Meetings and Badges
A typical Brownie meeting includes songs, crafts, games and exploration of new places and ideas. Brownie Journey programs encourage this exploration and help girls grow into leaders through the National Program Portfolio and Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
Brownies can earn badges which introduce them to activities and let them try something new – proficiency is neither required nor expected.
As a Brownie, you might ...
- Learn how animals are cared for and organize a toy and blanket drive for a shelter
- Take a trip to Dairy Queen and learn how they make ice cream
- Attend special Girl Scout events in your community
- March in community parades
- Teach Girl Scout Daisies songs and games
- Go camping, make s'mores over a campfire
- Earn badges, learning new skills
- Make new friends and try new things at day or overnight camp
Girl Scout Journeys are leadership programs that enable girls to plan and make decisions at every level.
It's Your World – Change It!
On the Brownie Quest, girls meet three new friends and an elf, in a sport that inspires community service.
It's Your Planet – Love It!
The Brownie Elf is back for more adventures in WOW! Real-life Brownies will explore the Wonders of Water and try out new ways of working as a team.
It's Your Story – Tell It!
A World of Girls helps engage Brownies in a way that gets them looking for clues to help make the world a better place. With some help from Brownie Elf, girls see how they can create positive change in the world – change that affects girls.
Girls Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts offers a wide variety of programs for all Brownies -- girls in troops and girls who are independent members.
