Girl Scouting is for every girl, everywhere—where today's girls can become tomorrow's leaders. Experiences in Girl Scouts are differentiated based on grade level to ensure that girls can relate socially with their groups, and that they participate in activities for their developmental stage. Membership in Girl Scouts is open to girls in kindergarten through 12th grade.

Daisy Girl Scouts meet in groups of five to 10 with two or more adult leaders in a nurturing, inclusive environment. They go on trips, learn about nature and science, and explore the arts and their communities.
