Brownie badges

Ever since my previous blog entry on Brownies, I've been slightly obsessed. I looked into the current Brownie badges, and they are so different now, they are really new school! I have to say I like the old-school ones a lot more. I think you'll agree wtih me. The top picture (I know, out of focus) off an Ebay listing is what my badges looked like 20 years ago. The center one should be the Pixie badge (my fomer group within the troop). The bottom picture is of some the new group badges. I'm guessing I know which one is the Pixie. UNCOOL.

What is so interesting is that they are so historically British and yet it's almost funny for me to think that someone as American through and through as VKo BROUGHT me to Brownies. You did have the most beautiful sash.

i really love the old badges. but i didnt really like the uniform the new one is so much better and easier to wear. I do both brownies and guides in scotland and love the new look of the brownie and guide uniform but m not much of a fan of the new badges
