In honor of the upcoming cookies sales – Craft Cat and I worked on another cookie swap. Today it is the Thin Mint Cookie. I found the original idea from a Service Unit website – Service Unit 70 from Virginia. They had a SWAPathon (what a cool idea) and this was one of their SWAP’s.
Skill Level: Daisy – Ambassadors (for the younger scouts, you will need to provide more guidance – like predrawing the circles, etc.)
Supplies: Dark brown Felt or craft foam (I had brown felt, but I would prefered the foam, scissors, hole punch, safety pins
Directions:
Step 1: Draw a circle. Mine ended up being almost life size! You can make it life size or smaller. I traced around something with a Sharpie. Cut out your circle.
Step 2: Create your “bite.” If you are using foam, use the hole punch to create the “bites”. I tried the hole punch with the felt – it didn’t work. I used scissors to create a “bite”. You could use another circle to create the bite also. I free-handed mine!
Step 3: Add your pin & your tag “Hey, who ate my Thin Mint?”. Put your info on the back of the tag & you’re done!
Wasn’t that simple! Who wants cookies?!
Yours in Scouting!
