Miss Me/Miss Me Not Daisy Bridging

Preparation: We made big white cardboard petals for each girl, as well as a yellow center with a stem for the leader.  Leader sits on a stool, and the girls cluster around her.

Leader: Our Daisies have been a wonderful group to work with this year. Išve asked each of our petals to say one thing about what we did.  While I hope that each girl will miss me a bit, my job is to prepare them to move on.  Please wait to clap until all our Daisy petals have crossed the bridge to Brownies.  Here are the petals of Troop ____

( I said She'll miss me or She'll miss me not and the girl's name.  Each girl said her line and threw her petal out into the audience, then crossed the bridge.)

Leader: Now that all the petals have flown off the seed pod, the seeds of Daisy Troop____ are turned over to our Service Unit Manager.  Daisies seeds are sown every year.  We need a couple of new leaders for next year.  If you know a young girl headed to kindergarten this year, perhaps even your own, who wants to be a Daisy, or if you are willing to be a  troop leader, or can suggest another mother to be a troop leader, please speak to (our Service Unit Manager) after our ceremony.  Thank you!
