Description
Girls will use engineering design processes to create a themed toy, explore ideas to modify the toy to make it better, and develop an approach to market their toy to others. Length: 2 hours. Girls will hear first-hand from a female entrepreneur, as well as a famous entrepreneur, whose businesses have changed how we lived today. Then they’ll put what they’ve heard to use as they create their own restaurant business – developing a theme, designing a prototype, conducting tests, and pitching their business. Length: 2 hours. Girls will earn their Business Jumpstart badge as they build their entrepreneurship skills. Girls will brainstorm ideas for a new themed rollercoaster, build a prototype of their rollercoaster, and pitch their concept to get funding for their business. Length: 2 hours. Girl Scouts will become entrepreneurs as they start their own Safari ride in Africa. STEAM Teams will plan, design, model and pitch their new business to a panel of “investors” in this hands- on Challenge Island adventure. All steps of the badge will be covered, but badge is not included.
