1 muffin per person
1 piece string cheese per person
1 box juice per person
Imagination!
Leaders need to plan ahead where each item can be hidden.
For example: Put bananas in a bucket tied to a rope and hoist into a large
tree. A bag of box juices could be hidden behind some large rocks, etc.
Divide girls up into 4 groups, give each group a written clue and send them off
to gather the breakfast! Variation: Bag up items into individual breakfasts.
Hide each bag around the camp area. Let each “monkey” find her own
breakfast!
