Here’s the Scoop
o Girl Scouts isn’t just cookies and crafts, though those are pretty awesome, too. It’s a launchpad for girls to explore, grow, and shine. Whether she’s building a robot, hiking a trail, running her first business, or leading a community project, a Girl Scout is gaining real-life skills and building confidence along the way.
Check out some of the ways your girl can have fun and be unstoppable with Girl Scouts!
A squad that will cheer you on. A chance to try new things. That’s what being a Girl Scout is all about. Whether you go solo or join a troop, your Girl Scout community is a place to call your own, test your limits, and have a blast.
From discovering new museums to camping at a state park all weekend, there are so many adventures waiting for you. Go with a buddy or your entire troop and try something new.
Girl Scouts learn to lead with confidence, make smart, fair decisions, and empower others. Whether they're running a cookie business, leading an Award project, restocking a food pantry, or advocating for change, they prove that making the world a better place is just what Girl Scouts do.
Grade levels
Each level of Girl Scouts is unique with a wide variety of activities to try. Girl Scouts can begin in kindergarten and join all the way through twelfth grade. As a Girl Scout progresses, every level builds upon the last and allows them to explore their interests in a way that is meaningful—and age-appropriate—to them.
What Daisies Do 
Don’t we all wish we could look at the world through a Girl Scout Daisy’s eyes? Everything they do—from planting a garden to putting on a skit to proudly adding that first petal to their vest—sparkles with that "first time ever" newness! Along the way, they’ll use their Daisy exuberance to help others—and they’ll never forget how that feels. Every Daisy meeting is an adventure filled with giggles, energy, and excitement.
As a Daisy, she might:
Gain new friends as part of a troop
Earn petals (the special Daisy version of badges earned by older Girl Scouts) as she embraces the Girl Scout Promise and Law
Make a difference in her community through a Leadership Journey
Sell cookies (and have fun doing it)
Explore nature and the outdoors
What Cadettes Do
Making true-blue friends, saving the planet, standing up against stereotypes, using their team power for the greater good—that’s what being a Girl Scout Cadette is all about.
Cadettes blaze new trails in the wilderness, write and direct their own movies, take the stage for public speaking, make delicious meals from around the world, and pick up tools to do some woodworking. Their curiosity and imagination lead the way as they try all kinds of new experiences.
As a Cadette, she might:
Choose an issue she cares about, then do something to make a difference as part of a Girl Scout Leadership Journey
Earn her Silver Award, the highest award a Cadette can earn
Get outdoors and off the beaten trail
Try out new experiences (and learn new skills) as she earns badges
Gain confidence as she mentors younger Girl Scouts (and earns her Leadership in Action award in the process)
What Brownies Do
Girl Scout Brownies are ready to take on the world, and Girl Scouting lets them do just that! They want to learn new things and show off what they know. They want to explore the world and meet new people. And they want to do something big that makes them feel great!
They get to do all these things and more in Girl Scouts: take that first hike in the great outdoors; visit a science museum; band together as a mighty Brownie team to sell cookies—and use some of the money to help others. Life is good when you’re a Brownie!
As a Brownie, she might:
Expand her circle of friends in a troop
Have fun learning all kinds of new skills as she earns badges
Do a project that makes a difference in her community (and beyond) as part of a Girl Scout Leadership Journey
Bond with her friends as she sells cookies
Explore nature and the outdoors
What Seniors Do
Girl Scout Seniors are ready to take the world by storm—and Girl Scouts will give them millions of ways to do it.
They can travel to amazing places like Costa Rica, Japan, or India; explore exciting careers in a variety of fields, from science to the arts to education to government; take on big projects and help others in a big way. And, of course, they can earn their Gold Award, which (by the way) adds that “little something extra” to their college applications. Seniors are eager to spread their wings—and Girl Scouts helps them take flight.
Interested in earning your Gold Award? You’ll be in great company. Check out some Gold Award projects and find out how to join the club.

Try new experiences and learn new skills as she earns badges
