World Thinking Day 2010

World Thinking Day 2010: February 22


Each year on February 22, girls participate in activities, games and projects with global themes to honor their sister Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in other countries.

The theme for World Thinking Day 2010 is girls worldwide say "together we can end extreme poverty and hunger."



World Thinking Day is part of the WAGGGS Global Action Theme (GAT) based on the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which aim to improve the lives of the world's poorest people.

Girls voted and selected Germany, Kuwait, Peru, the Philippines, and South Africa to represent the five regions of World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS)—Europe, the Arab region, Western Hemisphere, Asia/Pacific and Africa. World Thinking Day not only gives girls a chance to celebrate international friendships, but it is also a reminder that Girl Scouts of the USA is part of a global community—one of nearly 150 countries with Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.

another doll

This is the larger 14" Brownie Scout Doll by Effanbee. She has her original outfit but no scarf, if she had one. One sock was missing so I got replacement and will include them.

She is marked Patsy Ann 1959 and is in good condition.Her eyes work fine and her hair is in good condtion too. I do not think she was played with or was gently handled.

I am sorry to sell her, but no more ' Doll room"
