Girl Scouts is for families, too.

You see how much fun your Girl Scout is having, so why not join in? Parents and family members can get involved in Girl Scouting too, from enjoying Girl Scout activities together at home to helping at a troop meeting. It's fun and simple, and the benefits are huge.
