DD started Brownies at Christmas, and I don't really have much experience of what they are meant to do (one term of Guides, that's it) but at the moment it all seems a bit underwhelming. Vague promises are made about doing badges, but nothing seems to happen, and they do a lot of colouring. It feels a bit like after-school club with a uniform, really. It's certainly not encouraging her to be independent and adventurous.
There are a couple of other packs in town - and I know they have waiting lists - but am I even allowed to ask? Or do we just give up on it?

Brownie etiquette - is it possibly to change pack or is that a no no?
