YWIE is supposed to be a celebration of what they have ALREADY done - not something extra

I think one thing to remember is the YWIE is supposed to be a celebration of  what they have ALREADY done - not something extra.  If they have completed a  value experience involving giving a talk in church, they could display the talk  or recite part of it during the program.  If they performed a service project  in January for a value project, they could show some pictures of the activity or talk about it.  Even if they are only part way through a project, like creating a quilt, I think the girls could display that.  Since they are supposed  to be working on PP all the time, YWIE shouldn't be something they have to get a new idea for.

I believe we both as leaders and girls make YWIE too difficult (I was as guilty as anyone).  It kind of becomes more of a "talent show" (and even sometimes one-upmanship) than just a simple display or demonstration of what they have been working on.  I think that's why you hardly ever get projects for Faith & Integrity because they aren't as showy as say a Knowledge project of dancing.

This lesson really hit home about two years ago when I saw that the display tables were more "all about me" than actually about PP.  Last year, my new Beehives who had only been in YW a few weeks simply wrote a paper about the Proclamation and put it on the table - that was their display.  I thought it was great and met the purpose.
