| In 1926 people in Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting decided there should be a special day when Girl Guides and Girl Scouts all around the world think of each other and give thanks and appreciation to their "sister" Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. They decided that February 22nd would be a good day as it was the birthdays of both Robert Baden Powell and Olave his wife. On February 22nd 1927 the very first Thinking Day took place. We still celebrate Thinking Day, each different unit or pack does this in their own way and sometimes we celebrate it together, it doesn't matter how we celebrate it because we are all thinking about each other when we do. |
