At our last Brownie meeting, we worked on not 1, but 2 patches! That's right!@ We combined First Aid with My Best Self. They both had some of the same requirements.
First up, Nurse Katie came to talk to talk to us about first aid and how to treat minor injuries and when to call 911.
We made our elf selves again making sure we used our own attributes and added our talents.
Nurse Katie also talked to us about how to take care of ourselves and things that we should be doing everyday.
One of those things included eating right. The girls designed a healthy meal on a paper plate and then we shared our ideas. We talked about what kinds of food are healthy for you.
We also learned about proper hygiene and that include washing your hands. We put some "germs" on our hands and looked at them under a black light. We washed them good with soap and watched those germs disappear.
This also led us to making our own first aid kits. All the girls got to make one. They included some bandaids, gauze, gloves, antiseptic, and a kit.
The girls were so excited about these and we talked about keeping it with us in case we needed to use them. They wore them to school the next day and the day after that even!
