- Flashback (All these score 20 points)
- 1910s: A girl-only space
In 1910, girls didn?t run, swim or wear trousers. Find out how restrictive life was for girls of your age in 1910. Visit a museum, or even try on some clothes from that era.
- 1920s: Guides Go Global
In the early years, guiding quickly spread around the world. Expand your guiding horizons. You could meet with other units, email Guides across the world, find a guiding pen pal or visit Guides in another country.
- 1930s: From Little Acorns?
In 1930 the foundation stone of CHQ was laid: contributions came from Guides around the world. Do something small to build something bigger: take food to a tea party, plant flowers to make a garden, or collect photos into a mosaic.
- 1940s: Guiding Without Leaders
During the Second World War, Guide Leaders were in short supply. Girls were left to run units on their own. Run something without the help of your Leaders. You could run a game, activity, event, unit meeting, trip, or fundraiser.
- 1950s: From Big Band to Rock ?n? Roll
From pop music to rock ?n? roll, the 1950s had it all! Write or sing a guiding song in the style of songs from that era, have a karaoke evening of songs from the ?50s, or create a dance from the period. Come dressed in ?50s-style clothes.
- 1960s: Have You Seen What They?re Wearing?
The ?60s saw huge changes in fashions - from ankle skirts to minis. The uniforms of Brownies and Guides changed too. Create a ?60s-style uniform. You could draw, paint, sew, make a collage, or dress up.
- 1970s: Friends Across the Seas
Britain joined the European Economic Community (EEC, now the EU) in 1973. Hold your meeting themed around a European country: learn a few words in the language, wear the guiding uniform from that country, and have food and music from there.
- 1980s: Aiming High
In the 1980s more and more women realised their ambitions and made their mark in areas from politics and law to business and sport. Set yourself targets to achieve within a week, during the Centenary year and in the next five years.
- 1990s: WWW
The ?90s saw rapid changes, with the growth of the Internet and other technologies. The Girlguiding UK website was launched. Create a webpage or have a text relay race to tell people about guiding.
