Independent Activity: World Thinking Day - Guiding Lights Lantern Craft & Activity
2021-02-22
Announcing our World Thinking Day celebration: GUIDING LIGHTS ACROSS BC – February 22, 2021!
Celebrate with BC Girl Guides in your community as we shine our Guiding lights in support of girl empowerment.
Every year on February 22, Girl Guides celebrate World Thinking Day, a day of international friendship. It is an opportunity to speak out on issues that affect girls and young women, celebrate the founding of Girl Guides, and be connected to the 10 million members around the world who are part of the Guiding movement.
Here in British Columbia, we have thousands of girls and women who are members of Girl Guides of Canada. We have Girl Guide programs in nearly every community in BC and our girls/volunteers light up their communities year-round through leadership, community service, and efforts to create a better world, by girls. This year’s Thinking Day festivities will look different than usual due to the current health realities, but we’re excited to celebrate in a way that is physically distant, keeps our communities safe, and brings a smile to the faces of girls, families, volunteers, and the public!
Make a lantern at home, using the re-usable tea light you received at enrolment or in your creative craft package, to send a Guiding Light to your community! Here are some great ideas and templates:

Make an upcycled lantern with an empty metal can and a hammer/nail
Print, cut, and glue together a triangular lantern or cylindrical lantern made of paper
Cut out candle drip protectors for a candlelit walk

ONLINE: Letter writing: staying in touch, building a bridge, and taking action
2021-02-24 18:45 - 20:30 | Zoom
Tonight is all about staying in touch while you’re staying home and being safe!
We’ll be talking about letter writing, and writing some letters:

To connect with people who are isolating
To connect with or support someone you love
To take action on something you care about

You’ll need a pen or two for this meeting. The other materials will be delivered in advance.

We are doing an in-person mental and physical self-defense workshop at Trout Lake Park with ARISE. Meet at 6:45 pm at the Trout Lake Concession Stand (in the south end of the park, near the parking lot – access from 19th & Lakewood).
For this meeting you will need to:
1) Complete the Digital Waiver: Please forward this link to parents https://app.cleverwaiver.com/render/templateByRefId/604428869ee3e500fe57407d. The waiver outlines the risks involved with learning self-defense and other important details.
2) Bring: Participants are to bring a blanket/yoga mat, wear comfortable clothing and have some water.
3) What to expect: The session will begin with a discussion time around the topics of safety, boundaries and consent and then transition into learning some jiu-jitsu based self-defense techniques.
Arise’s mission is to foster inner confidence, resiliency and awareness in young people, through fun, engaging and active workshops.
Arise Programs seeks to teach children and youth that they are worthy of being safe and respected.
Their whole-being approach brings together a unique combination of physical literacy and social-emotional learning. Equipping participants with the physical, emotional and intellectual skills essential to the development of self-confidence, awareness and character.
Through self-defense, mindfulness, role-play games and artful discussion activities, this session will focus on the exploration of movement, body autonomy, self-confidence and social awareness.
Part 1) Mental Self-Defense: Discussion-based activity addressing 1 or 2 concepts of personal safety, for example, non-verbal communication, consent/boundaries or emotional regulation. During this time, we may talk and draw, making mental and emotional connections to important topics.
Part 2) Physical Self-Defense: We’ll learn simple self-defense techniques that they can try at home solo or with a parent or sibling. These techniques can be implemented straight away and don’t involve any fighting or aggression, but rather reinforces individuals’ body autonomy and their right to say no.
