More Than Selling Cookies
Children as young as six join youth organizations. Beginning in
the early 20th century, young people joined groups such as the Boy Scouts, Girl
Scouts, Camp Fire Girls and 4-H. Each group had its own symbols, uniforms, handbooks and awards, but
all had the
common purpose of teaching young people to be good citizens.
