http://www.challengeleukaemia.org/

My Brownies will be doing said marathon challenge, and I've been set the task of deciding what challenge to set. I've decided on 26 little tasks.

However, this means that I have to think of 26 little tasks. So far I've got things like count to 5 in another language, hold the door for someone, pick up a piece of litter, draw your favourite animal. Random stuff like that.

I challenge you, Young Yorkies, to come up with some more.

Go go go!

Make a funny face.

Sing the national anthem.

Do a handstand.

Do that thing where someone shuts their eyes and falls back onto someone else who catches them.

Recite the 3 times table.

I am hardly a "Young Yorkie" but thought I would have a go.

Fun
- do impressions of famous people
- tell a joke

Educational
- learn the names of shapes (5-12 sided polygons)
- learn county towns in England
- learn capitals of the world
- learn how to say "My name is ..." in a foreign language
- identify different types of fish
- identify flags of the world

If I think of anymore, I'll add them to my list.

Thanks everyone.

The York thing is out of the question though, they're all Whitefield girls. The nearest league club to us is Bury.

Cook a meal for their mum or dad.
Tidy their bedroom.
Draw a picture of themselves in their Brownie uniform.
Sew a badge on their sleeve themselves (if they still have badges in Brownies and Cubs)
