Girl Scout Daisy Create and Innovate Badge

*This post contains affiliate links.

Children are naturally creative. Leaders will harness this ability to earn the Girl Scout Daisy Create and Innovate badge. Leaders who have covered the petals in previous meeting and have new girls who have not earned them will find this product useful, as the activities cover the concepts. It also serves as a review for the girls who have earned them already.

Because of the hands on activities, this badge will require two meetings to complete.

The Girl Scout Daisy Snacks Badge Has Arrived!

 *This post contains affiliate links.

When my daughter was a Daisy Scout back in 2008-2010, there were no badges to earn. Fast forward to now, and there are so many choices for leaders to use with their girls.

One choice that is missing from the roster of Daisy badges is a food oriented badge. Every other level has one or two. When a leader has a multi-level troop, she has no badge option for her Daisies to earn; all she can give them is a fun patch.

I have created an unofficial Girl Scout Daisy Snacks badge, complete with requirements! Whether you are a Daisies only level troop or a multi-level troop, this badge your girls will enjoy earning.

What is the Girl Scout Daisy Snacks Badge?

The badge requirements include a preparation page with an introduction and a list of what items are needed. 

While Daisy badges require only three steps for completion, four steps are included. This gives leaders choices and also makes it easier to integrate with your Brownies who are earning their Snacks badge.

The options are:

  • Make a Savory Snack
  • Make a Sweet Snack
  • Snacks for Energy
  • Slurp a Snack

All of the steps include multiple recipes and are no bake. There are alternative options for those who have peanut allergies in the troop.

In addition, the snacks are easy for the girls to prepare.

The badge has an iron on backing-no sewing required!

Where on the Uniform Can You Place the Girl Scout Daisy Snacks Badge?

The Snacks badge is unofficial, so technically, it is supposed to go on the back of the vest. 

That being said, there are no badge police and you can place it on the front. That is what I did for my daughter when she earned some unofficial badges. No one said a word as she proudly bridged to Adult and those badges were on the front of her vest!

The Girl Scout Daisy Craft and Tinker Badge badge will have your troop  creating something new, but thinking about who they are making it for and what they need to make it work. They will get to use different craft tools to make a gift for someone special.
