Through the Years



We covered all the decades from 1910-1990. We learned a lot about each decade, but I think the girls loved the dress ups the most. I had clothes that were worn in each decade and the girls got to wear them while they told about their assigned decade, then they enjoyed switching dresses several times.
I had a bag full of objects that were made or played with or watched in each decade and the girls took turns pulling them out and deciding which decade it came from. I think they were surprised to find that many of their favorite toys and movies came from a very long time ago. It was a fun night and hopefully they learned something!

Police Station


The girls enjoyed their evening at the Police station. They all got finger printed, then got their eyes scanned. They got a fun bag of prizes, got to check out the shooting range, and every one's favorite was the police dog! Officer Meddler did a great job with the girls and taught them about being safe especially when out selling Girl Scout cookies.

There is a dog under all those girls, good thing he was nice-
