Almost the end of summer?!

Here we are in the first week of August with the summer almost over, but that doesn't mean you don't still have time to have some fun before school starts!

Are you an outside kind of girl? Visit the Badge Explorer to find badges you could earn while spending some time outdoors. Here are some suggestions for all grade levels, or you can do some badge exploring on your own for some outdoor exploring!

Don't forget about the beautiful place we live and everything nature has to offer!
Check out a National Park, National Forest, or a National Wildlife Refuge.

  • play interactive internet games about sports

Something fun for inside or outside? How about picking up your favorite magazine or book and escaping into another world. Or you could always grab a sketchpad and create another world!

Whatever you decide, have fun and enjoy these last few weeks before school starts!
