Safety Part II

stickers. The Leprechauns and the Pixies also made scratch stickers and
the Elves made up a dance. We then had a pow-wow to discuss themes for
Pack Holiday. Next Otter led us in a running game about water safety.
we then solved a jigsaw puzzle which revealed the water safety code. To

what they had learnt. We all gained our badge! At the end of the

Elephant, Three Little Angels and learnt two caterpillar songs, My Ship
Sailed from China and a song about a button factory (led by our three
oldest Brownies).
