I'm trying to come up with a craft idea for the Red petal: courageous and strong. Does anyone have suggestions?? Thanks!
The red petal seems to be more a doing petal than craft oriented, the pp has a nice idea for it. My older DD's group went swimming together and they supported the girls who were not as adventurous try new things (with adult supervision) like jumping in, etc.
As for a craft, just thinking creatively, you could tie in a few activities being courageous... Maybe do something like paper plate puppets..have the girls do self-portraits with them coloring the face, yarn hair, ribbon for bows, etc. and have the girls do little skits about friendship, feelings, etc. (Courageous, to do the skits,and then skits can include friendship themes like hurt feelings when a friend leaves someone out, etc. My younger DD did this at a meeting and they did a great job!)
Another activity to go along with it for the "Strong" half could be to make a "Healthy Me" little booklet with collages, things cut out from magazines and
newspapers. Things can include food groups, things to do to keep healthy, like exercise, healthy grooming, brush teeth, etc.
and then an emotions category, things that make me happy, etc.
I don't know, just a suggestion to get thinking along that direction which would be relatively simple and low cost for materials. (always a consideration!)
Hope this helps a little!
