World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) reaches 10 million girls in 145 countries around the world.
Available for purchase is SWAPS Kit consisting of one Quick Fact Card for each of the 145 countries. Plus as an added bonus each of the 4 World Centers Quick Facts Cards are included. Each Quick Fact Card includes the Country Flag, the name of the WAGGGS Region it belongs to, the name of the Capital, the Language used, and the Currency used. Each card measures about 2" across and 2-1/2" long (countries with a longer name are just a little longer). These would be perfect for your Thinking Day Display, Thinking Day Event or if your girls are interested in learning about other countries. What a wonderful resource for your girls. The BEST news of all is that these are printed on Cardstock and LAMINATED for added durability. Safety pins are provided but not attached to prevent tangles. You will need a small hole punch or simply insert the safety pin directly through the card.
