At Challenge Island, we partner with Girl Scout Councils, Service Units, and Troops nationwide to provide girls of all ages—from Daisies to Ambassadors—with one-of-a-kind STEAM-based experiences that fulfill badge and Journey requirements. This collaboration aligns seamlessly with the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, empowering young girls to explore, create, and innovate through hands-on learning.
The Importance of This Partnership
Fostering an interest in STEAM among girls is crucial for building a future where they can excel in these fields. Our programs inspire confidence and creativity while reinforcing essential leadership skills.
How Challenge Island Aligns with the Girl Scout Leadership Experience
Girl-Led: In Challenge Island, the girls decide how to build and design in their challenges.
Learning By Doing: ALL Challenge Island curriculum is hands-on where girls learn by doing it themselves!
Cooperative Learning: Challenge Island programs are designed for girls to work together to accomplish their goals and for adult interaction to be minimal, with guidance in the form of questions to help the girls figure it out for themselves!
Exciting Rewards for Scouts
As a special bonus, Girl Scouts participating in Challenge Island programs receive an exclusive Challenge Island Fun Patch during every session! This fun reward not only recognizes their accomplishments but also serves as a memorable keepsake of their journey in STEAM.
Empowering Young Leaders
Through these engaging workshops, girls gain technical skills and develop leadership qualities that will benefit them in all areas of life. Working together in a supportive environment allows them to learn the value of communication, cooperation, and resilience.
