We treated the girls in our Junior Girl Scout troop to a back to school spa party for their first meeting. It was a low-key way to start off the year and subtlely talk about stress!
A back to school spa party can be as elegant (and costly) or inexpensive as your troop's budget allows. Here's what we planned for the girls - and most of the ingredients for our spa recipes came from our garden:
- Banana facials with cucumber slices
- Nail soak (no nail polish allowed at school)
- DIY cocoa lip gloss
- Our family's Yoga 4 Kids Board Game from home
Our troop kept the spa party low-cost without losing the experience; we used bandanas for head wraps to keep banana out of the hair; we took cucumbers and the dill for the nail soak from the garden.
We did treat the girls to a mini bottle of nail polish for their own pedicures if they remembered the Girl Scout Law. All told it was less than $15 for the meeting.
There is no better way to teach young girls how to go green (and de-stress) than planning affordable and natural beauty treatments. And the price was right!
