I’ve been looking for a way to make time capsules with my Guides. I had trouble wrapping my mind around this one. If we made one and opened it years later it wouldn’t really be very interesting for the girls who were then part of the unit. So I wanted to make it personal. Something the girls could take home and keep until it made sense to open them. I came across this file for a similar project for Cub Scouts.
So I made up a written time capsule for my Guides. Each girl was given an envelope to decorate. We asked each girl to pick a date in the future she thought would be meaningful to open their envelope on.
