As we prepare for the cookies, we’ll be highlighting one of the 5 Skills each month leading up to the 2026 Cookie Program. We’ll share quick tips and resources you can use with your troop. This month’s focus: Goal Setting!
Setting a goal together as a Troop helps Girl Scouts connect the cookies they’re selling to the adventures they want to have. Your troop will learn that they are building something meaningful together. When Girl Scouts see how their effort adds up to a goal, it motivates them, teaches teamwork, and gives them a big reason to be proud when they reach it.
How can you make goal setting fun with your troop?
We’ve created some fun activities for different troop levels. Click on the links below to learn more about the activities you can do with your Troop.
