Thinking Day

I was born in the 1950's and was a child in the 1960's when it was almost compulsory to joining the Brownies for girls and the Cub Scouts for boys.

Consequently we always celebrated the birthday of Robert Baden-Powell on 22nd February, the day being known as Thinking Day. As Brownies and Cubs we were encouraged to think of others and help others not just on this day but throughout the year. This year was the 100th Anniversary of Thinking Day and it was commemorated across the world by Brownies, Guides, Cubs and Scouts and the whole Scouting community.

We here at Grovely Puzzles do not have a puzzle that celebrates the Scouting Movement, although we have made bespoke puzzles for both the Guides, Trefoil Guild (Older Guides!) and the Scouts, we do have lots of puzzles that could make you stop and think about which piece goes where.

Examples that come to mind are Autumn Leaves- Cotswolds and Sunrise over Cadair Idris and many from Claire Bessant if you enjoy photographic images. For Artists work check out Sue Podbury and Roy Didwell, Netties Nature and Ian Kent all of whom produce intricate and challenging images.
