Free Thanksgiving Coloring Pages to Keep Your Troop Busy
Learning time management is very important for Girl Scout leaders. Children who are left to their own devices can get into trouble! In a previous blog post that has many sources for free Girl Scout Daisy coloring pages, I shared some reasons why time management is so important.
Now with the Thanksgiving season coming upon us, here are some free printable Thanksgiving coloring pages to have printed out and on hand for your meetings. These can be transformed into cards, glued onto contruction paper for place mats, or cut out and used for other crafts.

As you wrap up your Girl Scout Founder's Day celebrations and head into the busy holiday season, we enter a time where we focus on what we are thankful for. As the leader, you will want to be focusing on both the fun part of the season, as well as helping others who may not be as fortunate.
Of course, you are also more than likely very busy with your own celebrations and preparations. One way to make your Thanksgiving meeting plans go more smoothly is with ready made Thanksgiving craft kits. Most of these are individually packaged and ready to use. Combine these with making cards for the holiday and reading a Thanksgiving story, you have an easy meeting with very little prep work necessary.
Here are some fun Thanksgiving craft kits for you to do with your troop.

Fun and Easy Thanksgiving Meeting Idea for Daisy Scouts

Updated October 2019
It is that time of year when all of the weeks turn into a blur because the holidays are coming fast and furious! As a leader, you have so many obligations outside of Girl Scout that all you want to do is figure out how to have a meeting and make it easy on yourself.
This is where Thanksgiving craft kits come in handy. You can make this meeting more of a festive atmosphere than a badge/petal meeting.
The children learn about the holiday in school, so they have some knowledge about it. Here is a simple meeting format.
Discuss the meaning of Thanksgiving and what the children are thankful for. Then have them do one of the following crafts.
Once the craft is over, you can sing some Thanksgiving songs together. You can find them here at DLTK You can also find more songs here at Everything Preschool.
Don't forget to have a Thanksgiving coloring page in case you finish faster than you thought you would!

I know that it is only October and you have not celebrated Founder's Day yet, but a good leader has to plan ahead. The holiday season is very hectic and the last thing you are going to want to do is plan something last minute and get all frazzled. You have a month until Thanksgiving, so you will need to get your November meeting under control soon.
Make it easy on yourself...use a craft kit to make your prep time easier. Read a Thanksgiving book, collect some items for a food pantry if you have not done so for Founder's Day or make cards for family members. Then use a Thanksgiving craft kit to finish up your meeting.
Here are some ideas for you to use.
