Parents need to know that the aim of this site is to show girls what it's like to be a Girl Scout (or a Daisy or Brownie, as the younger scouts are called) -- all by promoting character, kindness, and responsibility. The site requires no membership and is easy to navigate, meaning anyone can enjoy the wholesome games and quizzes and ask questions. It does link to the main Girl Scouts site.
Educational value:Girls will learn about the process of becoming a Girl Scout and learn others things such as being a true friend.
Positive messages:Promotes friendship, self-respect, responsible behavior, and community activism.
This is a nice little site, but there's not much to it. Girl Scouts can write to an advice columnist, participate in polls, and submit their original writings. My daughter likes it, but runs out of things to do on it in 5-10 minutes flat. It is not updated frequently. Also, some of the poetry that has appeared as "original" work was actually plagiarized (it was quickly removed after it was reported.) This site has promise, and it perfectly safe.
