Atlantic Canada World Thinking Day Celebrations!

Atlantic Canada has been busy this past World Thinking Day. Not only have the girls taken time out of their busy schedules to honour Lord and Lady Baden Powell, but they have also tried new games and recipes as well. The girls were given the opportunity to try new foods from St. Vincent and the Grenadines including the calypso drink and the coconut roll. Further, many units also tried out the shared World Thinking Day activities. The “Make the Shape” activity seemed to be quite popular and enjoyed by all! Check out some of the fun we have documented below:


Culture Sharing Activities

The 2nd Timberlea Brownies give thumbs up (or thumbs down) to Calypso drink. Some thought it was a little sour (must have been the grapefruit juice)!  (submitted by L.Smith, 2nd Timberlea Brownies)



Harvest Trail Area Commissioner, Darlene Banks, takes Coconut roll from the oven. It was "a little overcooked" but the girls loved it!  Girls from the Harvest Area also made seashell crafts, the calypso drink and of course they played the 1 and 20 game. They learned about the history of Twinning as well as about St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Guiding there. All the girls in attendance enjoyed the activities!

Activities from the #Shareit Twinning Activity Guide for Thinking Day 2015


The 1st Long Pond Sparks play the “Make the Shape” game. The girls learned the importance of working together to achieve great success! The girls cannot wait to play this game again (Submitted by C. Haines, 1st Long Pond Sparks). 


We hope everyone had a great World Thinking Day 2015!
