Pathfinder Community Emblem Challenge
Thanks very much to Wendy Baker, who created this game and shared it with the Guiding Mailing List!
Equipment: a jar and some dice; you will also need to have the materials available for all the challenges described below, or whatever challenges you decide to do instead.
To Play: Split the girls into teams of two or three players. Each challenge to be completed by each of the girls, either separately or as a group, depending on the challenge. There are six challenges. The teams take turns rolling the dice and then they must complete the challenge that corresponds to the number on their dice. Teams must complete all challenges to finish the game.

2. Make butter from cream, baby food jar and a marble. (use it at the end for the biscuits). (Page 36 - Community Emblem, Heritage #2)
