Typically, boys join Cub Scouts when they are in first grade.
When Boy Scouts were first getting started, many groups of girls also wanted to be Scouts, so they were meeting and calling themselves Girl Scouts. Sir Robert Baden-Powell, who started the Scouting Movement, thought that girls should have their own organization, so he named it Girl Guides and asked his sister, Agnes Baden-Powell, to help grow the Girl Guide organization. Girls choose to be Girl Guides or Girl Scouts for various reasons. It may be because they like the activities or they like earning badges. Some join because they like doing community service or learning leadership skills. Some join because it is a family tradition or they join because they have friends in the troop/group.
The answer to this is has become complicated recently. Generally, no, boys are not allowed to join Girl Scouts until they are at least 18 years old and join as an adult. However, as an inclusive organization, if a child identifies as a girl and the child's family presents her as a girl, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her as a Girl Scout.
