We first introduced our new Personal Progress Board to the new Beehives and the rest of the YW. This board will be a group board that we will have up every Sunday. As the girls pass off goals we will turn the correct tile over in the appropriate value. On the other side of the value is a picture of the temple. Once the whole board are Temple pictures then we will have a PERSONAL PROGRESS PIZZA PIE PARTY. We are hoping this gives the girls a little more encouragement and motivation to keep working on their personal progress every week.
The Theme for the night was: LIVE LIKE YOU BELIEVE
We did an infomercial to start of the shopping. I will post the video later.
Tonight we did a Value Mall to introduce the new Beehives into the YW's program. We had 4 new Beehives there and it was a fun night. Each of the YW were in charge of one of the stores. They were to decorate the store with the appropriate value. As the new beehives walked around the gym/mall they would stop at each store and learn about the value. At each store they walked away with gifts from that value to add to their shopping bag. The first 7 values were in the gym and then the final Value was Virtue and it was in the RS room where the girls learned about the TEMPLE.
At each store the girls would introduce themselves and the store/value. They would read the scripture and the value motto, tell a personal goal they have achieved in that value, give them their gift and instructed them to visit the store next door.
Welcome to ALDO - The VALUE of FAITH
Welcome to THE BODY SHOP - The VALUE of DIVINE NATURE
Welcome to SHADE CLOTHING - The VALUE of INDIVIDUAL WORTH
Welcome to BARNES AND NOBLE - The VALUE of KNOWLEDGE
Welcome to HALLMARK - The VALUE of CHOICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Welcome to BEST BUY - The VALUE of GOOD WORKS
Welcome to SPORT CHEK - The VALUE of INTEGRITY
It was a really fun night and all the girls pulled through and did a great job at decorating their stores. For refreshments we had Orange Julius and Cinnabon. A special thank you to all the leaders and YW who put in a lot of work to help this be a successful night.

I absolutely loved looking over your photos and reading about your New Beginnings and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the idea of that temple board/poster for the personal progress. I would love to know how to make one of my own if you would be willing to share with me how you created it. We have tried everything we can to motivate our girls and I think that this idea might work. Please email me @ hysteria2483@gmail.com with details.
Thanks again for sharing these wonderful ideas.
So great!!! Those girls will remember that forever!!! I want that picture of the temple!! where did you get it from!!!( The big one)
ps I don't think I have ever seen a more beautiful bride!!!!!!
I'm curious about your Personal Progress board. Did each girl have to pass of a value goal to be able to turn over the cards or did you only require one girl to complete a value goal for each card?
What were the little things you gave out at each "store"? I love this idea and am going to use it this year for our New Beginnings thanks for posting this, so much creativity.
Oh also could you post or maybe send to me the video you did if you still have it. I'm so uncreative that any help would very much appreciated. Thank you.
more details on the personal progress board please :) i see three tiles under each value ... does each represent a class(bees, mias, laurels), and does the whole class complete the value before you can turn the tile? i like that there are no names, and think this could be a great way to encourage girls to help each other. maybe more honor bees awarded as well, as you can visually see where the needs are and help <3 how long ago did you implement this? what is your evaluation of it's success thus far? ...
