Just back from donating more platelets. If you can please consider donating blood or platelets. 69% of platelets go to cancer patients with the rest going to people in trauma. It really does save lives.

This week at Brownies & Guides we are doing ceilidh dancing and trying tablet for Burns Night. Will also get Guides to see how their poem writing goes. However that means I had to make tablet. Oh what a shame.

Next up trialling Homemade advent calendars.
They are great but now have 600 small bits of card to cut out.
They contain: sweets, stickers, temporary tattoos, old guiding badges, a fidget and a Christmas figure.
Each girl will make one but be given a different one to take home.

Love seeing all the Christmas crafts from my Brownies while I’ve been off ill this week.
It’s interesting to see what they come up with compared to what you think up.
This is one of the reasons I try to give girls materials to let them create their own things and not just have kits.
