By Freya Bond, age 8, of Helensburgh Girl Guides

At Girl Guides we have been doing Christmas in July. We are making fairies, decorations and gnomes. We have been very creative. We made Christmas fairies out of clothes pegs and fabric and we used hot glue to decorate our own outfits. We’ve been having loads of fun! We also made little gnomes out of pine cones and wooden beads and painted their tiny faces and added decorations to make them cute.

We will be selling the fairies, gnomes and elf sleeping bags at our Christmas tree sale in December.

Our Helensburgh unit meets every Thursday at 5pm, where the evenings are packed with fun activities, games, and learning experiences. Ready to make a difference?
