Daisy, Brownie, and Junior World Thinking Day 2024 Activity Guide | 8
Next, come up with some ideas for ways you and/or
your troop can help. Then make a plan to help. This
might be a troop Take Action project or one you do on
your own.
STEP 4: Share what you learned
and commit to a better future.
Share what you learned about World Thinking Day with
others! Did you connect with someone to learn about
their country or culture? Tell your friends about it and
share what you discovered. Did you explore something
interesting about the World Thinking Day theme? You
could share that instead.
Choice 1: Participate in a World Thinking
Day event.
Ask your troop leader to help your group plan an
event that can show what you’ve learned. Think about
creating yers or a poster with the message you want to
share. Have food or music from countries you may have
learned about. Find creative ways to show your guests
the problem you learned about and what some solutions
might be. Invite a guest speaker to talk to your group.
Reach out to your troop network to nd organizations
with experience in global issues, especially one that
connects to the theme you learned about. Find out from
your guest speaker how you can make a difference.
What can you do in your home, community, and
the world?
Choice 2: Create a message.
With the help of an adult, come up with a message
about what you learned and things you want to see
happen to help make a difference. You can draw or
write your message in a poster, lm it as a video, or
create a skit or play about it. Then, with your friends,
brainstorm ways you can share your message. For
example, you could post it on social media (with an
adult’s help), present it at school, or display your
message in a community center.
Choice 3: Plan a project.
The best way to help with a problem is to Take Action.
First, think about what the problem is. Write it down.
When you are done with all four steps, make sure you
celebrate! Working with your global Girl Scout and Girl
Guide community to explore this year’s theme and earn
your World Thinking Day award means you’ve helped
make the world a better place.
Write a Pledge
A pledge is a promise or agreement you make with
other people and agree to keep. Come up with a
pledge for yourself and your group to sign that

Girl Guides on World Thinking Day.
