V.A.L. is coming!  Don't miss out!  Click here to find out more about how we can support you as a Girl Scout, Boy Scout or youth leader!

This site contains links to activities that are based on our experience as a Naturalist, Troop Leader, and Animal Keeper.  The ideas can be used for groups of children or one child. 

Each activity will appear on its own page.  Every activity will have an objective, background, suggested age level, and the activity.  If any skills are needed, they will also be listed.   An Acrobat ^(tm) sheet can also be printed out.  If there is an activity sheet with the activity, it will be included in the Acrobat ^(tm)   file.

Whenever possible, the activity will be tied to a Girl Scout or Boy Scout badge.   If they fit in with other youth group badge requirement, please let me know and I'll include it on the page.

I will try to extend the activity for other age levels when appropriate.  Resources that may be useful will also be listed at the end of the activity.
