SFA Planetarium & Library















We had a GREAT time at the SFA Planetarium learning all about stars and our solar system.  Good pictures are hard to take in the dark, so here's a shot of the girls eating snack after watching the show and before heading next door to the SFA library!














After riding up the elevators we all headed over to the 4th floor windows to get a cool view of the campus!














Then, it was off to the children's section of the library for some reading fun!

It seemed like no time at all before we had to round 'em up and move 'em out. 


But not before getting a group shot of all the girls who were able to attend both portions of the night's events. 

Thanks for braving the weather and we'll see you next time!

Respect yourself and others















As Daisy Girl Scouts, one of the petals we earn is the "Respect yourself and others" petal.  To earn this one, we invited Dr. Criss, a local pediatric dentist to speak with the girls about taking care of our teeth.  Having healthy teeth is one way to respect yourself!  Dr. Criss brought her big animals with giant toothbrushes so the girls could practice brushing teeth for two minutes! 

We also made some yummy snacks that looked like smiling mouths with teeth using apples slices and marshmallows.  :)

A good time was had by all and the girls each went home with a little goodie bag courtesy of Dr. Jennifer Criss. \

We talked just a bit about respecting others, too.  Contest information was passed out for an art and writing contest being held for no-name-calling week.
