I was thinking about the years I was sewing merit badges on vests, shirts and sashes and how I would love to display my own merit badges. Just today I’m sure I earned

  • Explaining to a Kindergarten (who doesn’t know how to tell time) when 4 o’clock is and why it is not now
  • Convincing same Kindergartner than she CAN clean her room without my help
  • Not having a single moment to myself but being OK with that

But before I wrote the post, I found this website:  Mom Merit Badge  where she says “Those Mom Victories, that no one but another mother/parent would understand, deserve a Merit Badge.” Yes!

To find out which merit badges you qualify for, go to her site, peruse her list of Merit Badges and award yourself or award a friend!  How Fun!  I love how she shares her own stories for each Merit Badge she earned!  Sadly, She hasn’t posted any new ones since March 2013, hope she continues – it’s quite creative!

Give her a visit and see why I gave myself this merit badge today!

2 Thoughts on “Merit Badges for Moms

  1. Thanks for sharing this site, Amy. Being a mom of a couple of Boy Scouts (including an Eagle Scout) and a daughter who is now a Girl Scout Ambassadors, I know what you mean about sewing on those lovely little badges of achievements and kind of wishing we Moms could have some of our own. Congrats on your Phoenix badge. Well earned. 🙂
