These Girl Scout Birthday in a Bag Gift Tags for Community Service Projects will brighten up your gifts to others.
In case you missed it in my previous post, “Almost 30 Easy Ideas for Girl Scout Founder’s Day”, I have a free item for your troop to use.
This free Girl Scout Birthday in a Bag Gift Tags for Community Service Projects can be done at any time of year. Use these for Girl Scout Founder’s Day, Girl Scout Week, the holiday season, or any time you want your troop to do something for others.
Many Girl Scout troops make birthday bags and donate them to food banks. Included in the bag are cake mix, a tub of frosting, a cake pan, candles and birthday themed paper goods.
Available on Teachers Pay Teachers
One issue that comes up is that cake mix requires eggs and milk, two products that are expensive and may not be in the recipient’s budget. A cheaper alternative that works is a can of soda. It replaces all of the liquid the cake mix requires and bakes up just fine.
So if your troop decides to do the “Birthday in a Bag” service project, you can include a can of soda and the instructions tag. Have your girls cut out the tags and glue them to the box of cake mix before packing up the bags.
What are you planning to do with your troop for Girl Scout Founder’s Day?
