One of the greatest things we have found, while perusing Pinterest, is this really fun sampler kit from Wilton’s. For about $6/kit you can purchase the Wilton’s Icing Fun – Girl Scout Sampler Kit. In it you get a piping bag, a standard sized coupler, three piping tips, instructions and, here’s the kicker, a FUN PATCH for the girls’ uniforms!
Since it was our last meeting before Winter Break, we decided to have some fun. The leaders pitched in to purchase a kit for every Cadette as our Christmas gift to them. This way we were able to learn, have fun AND take it home to play with some more!
After teaching the girls how to set up their piping bag and hold it properly, we practiced, with each of the three tips, on a flat surface. This way they could get a feel for the amount of pressure it takes to create the perfect shape.
Of course, there was some of this happening 🙂
But…..they all did really well.
GREAT JOB GIRLS!!
