Brownie Think Like An Engineer Award Badge

In this Journey, you will: 1. Find out how engineers use design thinking to solve problems. 2. Do 3 design thinking activities: design and build an assistive device, a water collection device, and a device that can launch a ball across a room. 3. Plan a Take Action project that helps others. If you're a Girl Scout volunteer, go to Volunteer Toolkit for complete meeting plans and activity instructions. Updates are on the horizon. Journeys will officially retire on October 1, 2026—but leadership opportunities for Brownies are here to stay! Brownies can continue to grow as leaders through badges and service projects that encourage them to lead with kindness, make a difference, and build confidence along the way.
