Movie Night


Hello everybody! Welcome to or back to Guiding at Home. Today I've got a new fun activity for you do so you can chill and relax with friends and family in these still trying times.

I think a great evening activity is sitting in front of the tele with a nice family movie with popcorn and sweets. Just choose a movie, get some snacks and you are in for a night of fun and adventure.

Movie nights are the best but you can make them better.

Why not make a den to watch the film? You can gather loads of blankets and cushions, hang them from the ceiling. I also think fairy lights are always a nice touch. 

You can also make a confectionary stand for all your drinks and food. All you need to do is prepare some snacks in bowls and make some drinks and put them on a tray and you are all ready to go.

You can be as creative as you like, why not make your living room into a mini cinema? Make tickets and invite your family. Set out different seating areas for your customers. Give your customers food from the confectionary stand. Turn off the lights and you are ready for a magical evening.

I believe it's important to let your imagination roam free. It would be quite boring just sitting in front of the tele for a movie night. Make the little things big so you can get more enjoyment out of them. You only live once, romanticise everything.

Just a quick other idea, why not have a movie marathon? Spend the whole day watching movies in your little cinema!

Please feel free to comment below how you made your movie night special and what movie you watched.

Thank you for reading and make sure you keep safe and keep on Guiding!

Hello everybody! Welcome to or back to Guiding at Home. As a Guide I'm sure that you have earnt badges along the way but you never know what to do with them. You consider putting them on your blanket or uniform but you never have time or don't know how. Well now that we are in quarantine we have loads of time to spare so why not pick up a new skill of sewing and sew that pile of badges on? As I have mentioned the most common places to sew on badges are on a blanket or your uniform. If you aren't aware sewing badges on blankets is quite a common occurrence in Guiding because we like to have a place to display our badges and when we go on camp or gather around a campfire it's nice to have our blankets that show our achievements. They are also fun conversation starters, you can talk about the stories behind the badges and which ones are your favourite. You can use any blanket or you can get one on the Girlguiding shop. Sewing your badges on your uniform is also common and ...

Meaning Behind The Promise

Hello everybody! Welcome to or back to Guiding at Home. In today's Looking at GirlGuiding I wanted to explore the meaning behind the Guiding Promise. Many of us have made our promise over the years and committed to GirlGuiding. But what does it actually mean? I'm going to go through and break up the lines so you can understand it better and maybe abide by it with more clarity. 'I promise that I will do my best' In GirlGuiding you aren't expected to be perfect and flawless so we don't want you to promise that. By promising to do your best means you will try even when you are faced with a challenge. You want to be the best version of yourself and we want that to. This part of the promise allows you to try new things and develop skills. 'To be true to myself' You are amazing and we want to see you being you at Guides. You are promising to be comfortable with yourself and enjoy the things you want. You stand up for your passions and sometimes have to realise...
