I have a quick and easy meeting idea that is both festive and fun for your little Daisy Scouts and easy for you to prep for-even last minute. You may wish to have an additional parent or two helping you oversee the two stations.
Need to earn the Spring Green Daisy petal, Considerate and Caring? Use this project to earn it and you have another petal done!

Cookie Decorating
Materials:
Sugar cookies
Sprinkles and/or colored sugar
Confectioners sugar
Water
Cake decorating brushes (very cheap at the craft store)
Parchment paper, wax paper, or paper plates
White lunch bags
Curling ribbon
Plastic wrap or baggies
Hole puncher
Stickers
Gift tags (the girls can make these out of pre-cut paper or use the labels you have at home)
If you have time to bake cookies for the girl, that is wonderful. But if you do not, buy some plain sugar cookies in the bakery department of your local grocery store. Make icing from confectioners sugar and water at home and place them in containers.
The girls can work in stations. One set of girls gets to decorate the cookies, places them on parchment paper or a paper plate that has her name on it in the corner.
The other set of girls is working on decorating the white bag with markers and stickers. They can even decorate a gift tag and make a card if you find you meed more for them to do.
Switch stations.
One volunteer can wrap the cookies in plastic wrap or place in a baggie, put in the gift bag, punch a hole in the top and tie it with a ribbon. Don't forget to hole punch the gift tag and place it on the ribbon as well.
The girls can go home with a treat for the family that they made themselves!
