That is a great recommendation. Unfortunately, it is too late for me to sign her up for DI (I got a flyer about it in Sept, but cannot remember if it was cost prohibitive or a time issue for us that made me opt out of it at that time), but I will definitely make it a bigger consideration for next year. Your suggestion also makes me wonder if I can do some sort of mini DI type team project for my Girl Scout troop to work on over the next few months. We have Thinking Day coming up in Feb and we are going to work on researching Japan and making a display about all things Japanese (our assigned country), as well as picking out a Japanese food dish to cook for the Thinking Day event. Maybe if I format it in DI style, it will help her learn to challenge herself and work with others in a more positive spirit.
