 Here is a compiled list of all of the badges and petals we have earned. Each link will have the guidelines for completing them.  If a task seems difficult to complete at home you are welcome to substitute it out with a craft or activity that fits your life better. There are always plenty of ideas on Pinterest. But the main requirement is that you help your girl grasp each concept with a discussion and some kind of activity.  When you've completed one with your girl let me know and I'll make sure she gets her badge at the next meeting! As Always let me know if you have any questions!
