Brownies are usually aged
between seven and ten, although some Brownies
stay in the unit until they are a little bit
older. Any girl over the age of seven can become
a Brownie Guide as long as she is able to
understand, and wants to make, the Brownie Guide
Promise.
Brownies
belong to a Pack and work in small groups called
Sixes. This gives each girl a group of ready-made
friends to take care of her. It also makes her
feel that she belongs to something special.
Brownie Packs meet regularly, usually once a week
during school terms. There are often other
opportunities for Brownies to take part in
special activities and events throughout the
year.
