Adult Leader or Den Chief: One of the things we try to learn in Cub Scouting  is Perseverance. That is a big word. What does it mean?

Cub Scout 1: In the Bible it says, “The waters wear the stones.”

Cub Scout 2: The water does this a little bit at a time over many years. We might things to happen quickly, but sometimes we have to be patient.

Cub Scout 3: A Chinese proverb says, “The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.”

Cub Scout 4: This means we have to keep trying to accomplish our goals, even if it is just a little at a time.

Cub Scout 5: We’ve all heard the saying “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.”

Cub Scout 6: Sometimes things don’t go our way. But don’t give up.

Leader: Perseverance means be patient, keep trying, and don’t give up.
