What is World Thinking Day?
Every year on February 22nd, Girl Scouts from around the world celebrate World Thinking Day. These girls gather together to address topics that concern young women.
The Girl Scouts' history goes back to 1912, dating back to 1912. This is when Juliette Gordon Low met Sir Robert Baden-Powell in England, the founder of Boy Scouts. Upon Low's return to her Georgia home, she knew she had to start a similar group for girls. She gathered 18 girls together and told them all she had learned about this new outdoor and educational youth program this year. Many affectionately referred to her as "Daisy" at the time, she was 51 years old and nearly deaf.
Girl Scouts' first small troop was culturally and ethnically diverse. Given that women were not even allowed to vote, this was a big deal. These girls were involved in basketball, hiking, and camping. More importantly, the girls gave those in need a helping hand. They also worked together to improve the world around them. Girl Scout numbers have thrived in over 100 countries since their humble beginnings. Girl Scouts numbers have grown from humble beginnings. There are currently 2.6 million Girl Scouts and more than 50 million alumni..
Girl Scouts today are focusing on four key areas that make up their leadership experience.. These fields include science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), Outdoors, Life Skills, and Entrepreneurship. Girl Scouts sell their famous cookies, which fall under the area of entrepreneurship.
