Badges and Paper Boats
Today, the Cubs’ focus was badges. At the start of the term, we’d read out the descriptions of the available activity badges, and taken votes on which ones were popular.
So today we went over the most popular badge that had a chance of getting done in a day - Road Safety - and we handed out worksheets for badges that mainly had to be done at home (the Collector, Animal Carer, and My Faith badges). On the next day we have for badge work (the 20th of June), those with collections or who wish to do My Faith can fulfill the requirements for them by showing us their collections, telling us about their faiths, and so on.
For the interested, the sheets I made can be downloaded: Animal Carer, Collector, and My Faith.
We nearly finished the Road Safety - just one more point remains to be covered; we’ll get that out of the way on the 20th, if all goes well.
Then the Scouts had a crafty meeting. They made Father’s Day cards and experimented with more boat designs for the upcoming Boat Race; and finished the final part of their Emergency Aid 1 badges.
