Sugar & Spice

I really need to go to bed, but want to share with anyone who may come across this post a wonderful observance from tonight's Daisy Girl Scout meeting.

Snakes and Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails...

We shared the school cafeteria with a pack of Webelos. At one end of the room, the boys were quietly doing arts and crafts; making paper bag puppets for their Showmanship badge.

Sugar and Spice, and Everything Nice...

At the other, the Daisies were investigating the contents of my worm compost bin as part of their Flower Garden Journey. The girls excitedly examined, with their bare hands, the rotting kitchen scraps and newspaper, looking for worms and worm eggs. A few girls allowed the worms to wiggle on their arms and faces.
