uniquely ME!
Created to address the critical nationwide problem
of low self-esteem among adolescent and pre-adolescent girls, uniquely
ME! THE GIRL SCOUT/DOVE SELF-ESTEEM PROGRAM is designed to foster self-esteem
in girls, ages 8-17.
uniquely ME! THE GIRL SCOUT/DOVE
SELF-ESTEEM PROGRAM helps girls feel
better about themselves by helping them develop the skills necessary
to face life's challenges. The core program curriculum, which integrates
the latest research from the Girl Scout Research Institute, consists
of three activity booklets that guide girls through simple exercises
that help them understand and build self-esteem. The booklets target
developmental age groups:
- 8-10-year-olds: uniquely ME! The Way To Be
- 11-14-year-olds: uniquely ME! Inside & Out
- 11-14-year-olds: uniquely ME! The Real Deal
The uniquely ME! booklets include exercises about recognizing one's
strengths and best attributes, handling peer pressure, healthy eating
habits, hygiene,
general wellness, exercise, and identifying core values and personal
interests. Additional information about eating disorders, the power
of positive thinking, relationship, and stress is also available
to girls,
on an age-appropriate basis.
All activity booklets are available in English and bilingual English/Spanish
versions and are accessible to Girl Scout troop leaders, adult volunteers,
and children across the country. Information on the program and activity
excerpts can also be found in the uniquely ME! section of the STUDIO
2BSM Web site.
