In January, Olivia's girl scout troop joined a few other local troops for a cookie kick-off pajama party. During this event, the girls went to different stations and completed cookie-related activities. I was a parent volunteer in the "fishing for cookie money" room. Here, the girls learned to count money and give change. I think it made them feel like grown-ups to be given this responsibility. Later in the evening, the girls were treated to popcorn and a 3-D movie. Olivia had a great time and came home fired-up about selling cookies. So far we have taken pre-orders for about 100 boxes. We should be receiving the cookies in the next week or so. There's no telling how many boxes we'll end up selling. Olivia wants to go on the cookie incentive trip to Atlanta, so she is really motivated. She is certainly enjoying her first year as a scout.
