Many leaders like to give their girls a gift when the move up to the next level. Here are Girl Scout bridging gifts for every age and level.
Bridging is a scouting milestone that is to be celebrated. After spending two (or in the case of Cadettes, three) years in one level, moving up is a Girl Scout rite of passage. To commemorate this special occasion, many leaders like to give a personal gift to each girl
Here are some new ideas and links to other blog posts that have tons of gifts at varying price points.

Graduation Cords
My daughter and her friend were able to wear their Girl Scout cords when they graduated high school. We needed permission beforehand, so before you order them, check with your school.
Since the cords are more expensive and harder to find at your the Girl Scout shop, here is an inexpensive alternative.
An Extra Gift for Graduating Ambassadors
When your troop gets to the end of their scouting years, you can add a few more patches to their collection. They can be worn on their present uniform, placed on their adult uniform, or put in a shadow box.
You can find these patches, as well as certificates, in my Etsy Shop. All of them are iron on, so no sewing needed.
