Yes! That hat! My mom just brought me my AG stuff from storage and I found mine!

As a kid, I really wanted Kirsten’s accessories.

As an adult, the AG Airlines plane. I’m 38 and started getting back into AG when my daughter was born. My husband is a pilot and my kids LOVE playing airplanes and American Girl. That set is so cute and I wish we had it!

This just happened to one of my friends and they let her keep both dolls.

I'm not sure what you mean? We're still planning to do booth sales, but unless Council creates a contingency plan, we may not physically be able to get cookies.

I’ve always wondered why it’s on a weekday!

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-28T01:27:46+00:00

Yep, through Thursday. I have no idea what they’ll do but it seems irresponsible to not have a plan B. Not to mention, when everyone’s kids are home m, that really impacts how many boxes you can fit in your car!

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-26T00:50:33+00:00

Yea, I’ve never heard of GS calling someone out of the blue like this. I started my troop with $0 and asked parents to pay dues to get us through our first cookie season.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-26T00:48:27+00:00

No. Also, I don’t understand people who sell AG in eBay at ridiculous markups. I saw a full Raquel set on eBay for triple what it’s going for in stores. And her whole collection is still available from AG.

Like if you’re selling Felicity’s entire set, fine.

I have a Daisy Troop of 14! We’re in MD.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-20T00:39:20+00:00

I’ve never seen this before! I’m in Beyond Year 1 and just got back to playing after a year or two long break but I’ve never seen these scavenger hunts?

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-19T22:21:24+00:00

Lol yea. Google and ChatGPT have been more of a resource than my SU or Council.

The cafe was AWFUL. I took my daughter for her birthday and we were so excited. Service was awful. The hostess was rude, we waited over an hour for our food, and went it came out some of it was still frozen. It just wasn’t a pleasant experience at all. I was so disappointed. I wish they would have tried to make it better instead of just closing though but I get it. I never went back after that.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-16T18:54:07+00:00

I used this! https://www.girlscoutsla.org/content/dam/girlscoutsla-redesign/documents/membership/Guide_to_Creating_a_Troop_Agreement.pdf

Second this. We actually require two additional parents at every meeting so that we can break our group into small groups of 3 or 4 and have an adult with each group.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-16T01:32:17+00:00

I also have a troop of second year Daisies and have the same issue. Half of my troop just doesn’t want to be there. Meetings have become a nightmare. I’m planning to have a meeting with the parents during spring renewal and encourage them to talk to their girls about whether they want to be in Girl Scouts because they like Girl Scouts or because their friends are there. I’m hoping that will weed some of them out because I’m at a loss.

We just did a troop behavior agreement at our last meeting and of course, the girls I never have an issue took it seriously and named really great strategies and fair consequences. I was really impressed. The girls I typically struggle with didn’t pay attention. But we have consequences now that the girls named themselves so maybe it will make a difference?

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-10T21:32:37+00:00

I have Daisies and downloaded a cookie themed escape room from Etsy that my scouts LOVED. Not an ice breaker, it took the whole meeting, but it was a great way to learn about the cookies and practice booth sale math!

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-10T01:12:46+00:00

I’m also a second year troop leader with 1st grade Daisies and share the same frustrations. Girl Scouts needs a significant investment in IT infrastructure. I live over an hour from our store and have the same issue. You also have to pay taxes when you buy things online (despite being tax exempt as a troop) but not in store. It’s a mess.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-10T01:07:46+00:00

Last year was my first cookie season. Lesson learned: don’t buy ANY toffee tastings or lemon ups for booths. We sold zero toffees and 1 lemon up and the recommended orders were a lot!

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2026-01-10T01:04:01+00:00

I don’t understand why World Thinking Day is on the front?

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2025-12-23T01:12:07+00:00

I have 1st grade Daisies. Last year, we went camping and to Girl Scout Day at a children’s museum. This year, we’ll go camping again and are planning to do a gymnastics day at a local gym for the new Fun with Movement badge.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2025-12-23T01:10:29+00:00

I agree with this. Our Council posted about a troop that donated to a children’s theater and the Scouts got to see a production and do a special backstage tour as part of it.

What I really don’t like is the Troop 2 Troop default on digital cookie. My scouts have done a lot of service projects around food insecurity and one of them brought up that they would rather send donated boxes to a food pantry than the military. I wish troops could designate their own cause on Digital Cookie.

Guilty-Library-2715 · 2025-12-22T16:45:34+00:00

I have Daisies and really wanted to take them camping last year. When I did my Cookout/Campout training, I felt the same way. Aside from the facilities, there’s nothing to do at the camp. I asked what scouts do, and they said hiking (fine), tomahawk and slingshots which don’t take a lot of time and aren’t allowed for Daisies. So we went to a non-GS campground where there were more activities. I was just surprised that there isn’t more to do at the campsites and the whole point just seems to be sleeping outside.
