Who Am I?This game is suitable for all and is great fun!

Before the meeting, the leader writes the name ofa celebrity on a post-it note (a different one

for each player). This is then stuck to thegirls’ head so she can’t see it. The player

then has to guess who she is by askingquestions (Yes/No answers only)

Guess Who?Can you guess who these celebrities are?

Glitz & Glamour!Have a celebrity themed evening - here are some ideas:

� Hold your own Awards Ceremony -You could have a red carpet; holdvotes for Awards such as Funniest

Guide, Drama Queen etc

� Put on your own Fashion Show -You could visit local Charity Shops and put togetheroutfits which represent the bargains that can be

found; Design and make your own clothes; Parade yourfavourite outfits; or try making outfits from junk

� Pamper session - Treat yourself to amanicure, facial or foot massage. You couldlearn the techniques and treat someone else

� Paparazzi are a common feature incelebrities’ lives - Have a photoshoot, learn

photography or create your owncelebrity gossip magazine

Air BrushingGirlguidingUK presented

a petition to David Cameron campaigning forcompulsory labelling to distinguish between

airbrushed and natural images to help combatthe rise of eating disorders and develop the self-

confidence of girls. What do you think aboutairbrushed images - do you think they lead to

eating disorders? How do these images make youfeel about yourself? Debate your views; or

complete the Looking at Me resource.
