This morning I assembled these aromatic herb bundles for a Daisy Scout activity later today that I’m calling, “Ooh, what’s that smell?”
It’s not a test and no right or wrong answers. Instead, I think it’ll be fun to see if the girls can associate foods with the aromas. (Bonus points though for girls who recognize the herbs and can name them.)
All of these are herbs from my backyard. Some, with the blue ribbons, are ones they will be able to spot in their schoolyard garden. I’ll point those out — weather willing.
It’s been raining all morning. I’m still hopeful the clouds will dissipate in time for our afternoon in the garden. A Garden-themed meeting just won’t be as much fun on a covered back porch.
