How to Earn The Light Blue Daisy Petal (4 Steps)


The light blue Daisy petal is the part of the Girl Scout law that means 'Honest and Fair.' This is a very important lesson for girls to learn.
You can start working on this petal by talking about what it means. Ask the girls what it means to them to be 'honest' and 'fair.' Ask them to share an example of this that they've experienced.
Write down several examples of honesty and fairness and read them to the girls. Tell them to shout out 'Honest' or 'Fair' depending on whether it is a situation involving honesty or fairness. Examples: 1) When someone wants to cut in front of the line but decides to go to the end - FAIR! 2) The clerk at the store gives you too much change back and you return it - HONEST!
A game of Musical Chairs is fun for girls this age and also demonstrates honesty and fairness. Before playing the game explain how each girl can get a turn shutting off the music (fair) and if they can't find a seat they can lose gracefully and stand to the side (honest).

How to Bake to Earn Extra Money


Hold a bake sale. If you're selling your baked goods to reach a one-time goal, such as a fundraiser, set up a table at your school or community center. Advertise your bake sale beforehand by posting fliers and letting locals know about your event, or hold your bake sale at a widely populated event, such as a craft sale or fair. Make sure you have permission from the appropriate resources to hold your bake sale.
Open a stall at an open market. Many cities and towns hold open markets from the spring through the fall and, aside from fruits and vegetables, markets often have openings for baked goods. Contact the organization that operates your local open market to inquire about getting your own stall. Keep in mind that you may need to invest in a table, tent and chairs to start a stall; however, this is a great way to gain a following, and you may be able to continue taking orders through repeat clients through the winter months.
Sell your baked goods online. Websites that allow members to sell crafts often allow bakers to sell their baked goods as well. Simply create an account, upload photos of the types of baked goods you sell and assign your goodies a price. Tell everyone you know about your online shop so that you can make sales right from the start.
