    Activity:
  • We were going to play a Game about responsibility. Two buckets, one says "responsible", the other says "not responsible". Split girls into two teams. Hand each team a pile of balls or other objects (one for each situation to be read by leader). Read a slip of paper about something someone does, team decides whether the person is being responsible or not, and runs to put a ball in the right bucket.
  • But the girls were really not interested, so we did some art projects instead.
