Honestly I haven't. We went all Christmassy for a few weeks while we made stuff for the bazaar and then we had a party in the dark. Oh yeah, that was an Adventure 100 challenge, wasn't it?
For reasons that I'm still mildly unsure of, my fiancé had a tube full of those glow necklace things and I wanted a decent excuse to wear my sparkly neckerchief (it's got flashing LEDs!) so the last Brownie meeting of the term was a "dark meeting". After issuing all the girls and leaders with necklaces and giving them a brief rundown of the rules, we got on with the rest of the meeting. Games in the dark - check! Brownie Ring in the dark - check! Register in the dark - ummm, perhaps not. The girls were pretty much in the dark but the lights above the leaders' table were still on so I went back there to call the names. Overall, it wasn't that dark. We left the lights on on the Christmas tree and the hall has skylights so there was quite a lot of light coming in from outside. We played musical statues and only stopped when the lights came on, not when the music stopped which was absolutely nothing to do with there being no power sockets for the stereo within arm's reach of the light switches. I then hid a ticking clock and my iPod which was playing very quietly around the room and the girls had to find them. I think the Brownies enjoyed the meeting but after Pack Holiday the previous weekend, I was still shattered so it was a lot of work to keep the girls from running riot during the meeting.
