What is a SWAP?Girl Scout have all sorts of fun and interesting traditions. One of those is SWAPS, which stands for “Special Whatchamacallits Affectionately Pinned Somewhere” or simply “Shared With A Pal.” SWAPs are small tokens of friendship that girls exchange with other Girl Scouts they meet. They come in handy when you meet a lot of different troops during events like World Thinking Day, summer camps, and when you travel with your girls. These little goodies don’t have to be complicated or expensive. Instead, they should be hand-made and have a connection to camp and/or the theme. They don’t have to look perfect, but they should have personality. Most importantly, they should be fun to make, give and receive. SWAPs are a great way to celebrate new and existing friendships. They are a memento of the friends your scouts make along the way. They’ll be glad they did down the road when these little “Special Whatchamacallits” help them remember new friends and fun travel experiences. It’s a good idea to attach a little note with the Girl Scout’s name, the unit name and possibly even the location and date. This will make it easier for your girls to remember down the road what SWAP they received where. But be cautious with the girls’ personal information. Don’t include their full names or home addresses. SWAP EtiquetteWhen Girl Scouts swap SWAPs, there are certain norms that should be followed so that all girls can enjoy the experience.
SWAPs intended for trading that are taken to the Brownie ring should be in a box or baggie. SWAPs pinned to the hat or vest are usually considered off-limits unless a Scout offers it to you. Use the Golden Rule and treat the other girl like you would want to be treated.
Remind your girls that if they receive a SWAP they don’t really like or one they already have, they can swap it with other Scouts. The Girl Scouts should accept each pin offered with a smile and can decide what they want to keep and what they want to trade later. |
