Reading the scriptures while writing a journal about each book. At the beginning they could put their testimony and also after. Then they can keep it their whole life and share it w/ their children.

Watching your “YW Camp 5 min intro” video made me fall even more deeply in love with Girl’s Camp (not that I ever fell out of love with it, just a bit unmotivated this year)! I plan to make a similar video to recap last years camp to play at our YW/parent kickoff. Thank you for sharing and inspiring. -Jennifer, Camp Director & YW 2nd Counselor

My YW don’t have supportive parents at home that help them with their Personal Progress. So here are some Idea’s we did together as activities some of these activities take 2 or 3 activity nights.
We made a recipe book with all the RS favortie Recipe’s.
I took the girls to the store and let them pick out blanket material for the front and back. (They LOVED IT) This is for their future baby.
Next activity we pined the sides together and sewed them with a nice finishing sew job on top.
Next activity we took emb. floss and quilted it.
They LOVED it!We have also set up the nursery to babysit kids once a month for parents to go to ward temple night. The girls brought activities, stories, movies and treats. Each had a small little lesson prepared. (which passed off a value experience too)
If you live in Utah you can set up an appt. to tour the make a wish foundation! IT WAS SOOOOO COOL! They even brought treats in for us! Then we got a Make A Wish child and gave some community service to help in any way we could.
We taught the girls how to make easy meals for when they have a family of their own. We gave them a recipe card to go into their books and after donated the meal to a family in the ward. We did this activity 4 times(8hrs)Through the year. With one activity to make the cute recipe books.
EASY ONE- I take my YW to the temple every month. (Three trips to the temple take up the 10 hrs.) Try temple hopping, if you are located in Utah they love it!
As far as reading the Book of Mormon for the Virtue value project. I have heard of a ward that had all their girls get to a certain point in the scriptures (It wasn’t very far) and then they set up a tent in someones back yard and had a Book of Mormon Read-A-Thon. They read the book of mormon that night and next morning. They said they started early and didn’t stay up TO late.
We also have done random service that we have counted to total up 10 hrs. One activity we did a service scavenger hunt. (2 hrs) Then we picked up Thanksgiving food items from ward members took (2 hrs) with a cute lesson. I think you get the point. All service activities that we did added up to 10 hrs.
If you decide to make personal progress a part of your activities e-mail me. We made cute bags with scriptures and PP books that they bring to every activities and to church on Sunday. We also made cute chuncky bead braclets where each large bead is a color of the values! Then each 10 hr project they earn they got a charm to go on the braclet.
Hope this Helps

My laurel class each made their own twin-size quilt. Each person in our class, including leaders, made a quilt block (approximately 12″ x 12″ or desired size) that represented her. She could cross-stitch, paint, stencil, etc. on her block. For example, one person loves light houses so she painted a light house on her block. Each YW made the same block for each person in the class. Each YW then traded her blocks with everyone else so everyone had a quilt block from each person in the class. We also included a class picture as one of the blocks. The other blocks were material to fill in between the decorated blocks to make the size of the desired quilt. Once the blocks were sewn together, the quilt was tied. This project is a fun reminder of each YW in the class.

Elder Uchtdorf gave talk recently “Continue in Patience” which I’m going to adapt:
In the 1960s, a professor at Stanford University began a modest experiment testing the willpower of four-year-old children. He placed before them a large marshmallow and then told them they could eat it right away or, if they waited for 15 minutes, they could have two marshmallows.
He then left the children alone and watched what happened behind a two-way mirror. Some of the children ate the marshmallow immediately; some could wait only a few minutes before giving in to temptation. Only 30 percent were able to wait.

Make Baptism books for 8yr old’s or soon to be 8. Include pictures to color, journal pages, word find’s–all about baptism & the spirit, explain what baptism is all about, etc. My girls loved it! Then they presented them to the 8yr old’s after they were sustained during Sacrament in Sharing time during Primary!

We are going to girls camp the 5th through the 10th of July. Our theme is on Virtue. I would love to have a copy of the words to the music that you used and the script, if possible. It would be really cute to do for our skit. Is there any way that you would share it.
It was so cute and would be perfect for what we are doing.Thanks so much,
