Welcome Scouts and Scouters! Here you can find resources for Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, and Venturers. I also have ideas for games, crafts, recipes, ceremonies, songs, skits, themes and more.
Ask a Question
Are you facing a challenging question related to Scouting that seems to have no clear answer? Don’t worry; I’m here to assist! Contact me with your queries, no matter how big or small, and I’ll make sure to share them with the broader Scouting community. This way, you can tap into the collective wisdom and experience of fellow scouts and leaders.
Whether it’s about camping tips, merit badge requirements, event planning, or leadership advice, the Scouting community is a rich resource. By sharing your question, not only will you get the answers you need, but you’ll also help others who might have the same question. Let’s work together to find solutions and enhance our Scouting journey. Remember, every question is an opportunity to learn and grow in our Scouting adventure!
Share Your Ideas
Do you have a fantastic Scouting idea or innovative approach that you’re excited about? Whether it’s a unique camping hack, a creative fundraising strategy, a fun game for your troop, or an effective way to teach a merit badge, I’d love to hear from you! Contact me, providing as many details as you can. If your idea aligns well with the principles and practices of Scouting and seems like it would benefit other scouts and leaders, I will gladly share it with the wider Scouting community.
By contributing your ideas, you’re not just helping your troop, but potentially inspiring and aiding Scouts and leaders across various programs. Let’s collaborate to make Scouting even more engaging and enriching for everyone involved. Remember, every idea, big or small, can make a significant difference!
You are also invited to join the Scout Moms, Dads, and Leaders Facebook group to ask questions and share ideas.
Current Topics for Scouts and Scouters
Archaeology Merit Badge
By doing the requirements for the Archaeology merit badge, Scouts find out how sites and artifacts from the past help us develop a more accurate picture of how our ancestors lived. They learn about the laws and regulations which protect archaeological sites. They do some hands-on research and explore careers related to archaeology.
Webelos My Safety Adventure
The My Safety Adventure is an essential part of the Webelos journey in Cub Scouts. This adventure helps young Scouts learn about personal safety in a practical and engaging way. By focusing on everyday safety at home and during Scout activities, Webelos develop important skills that contribute to their growth and awareness.
Aims of Scouting: Character Development
Character development is one of the aims of Scouting. Scouting America uses its programs to help young people build strong character. This includes learning how to make good choices, show respect, and take responsibility for their actions.
Crafts for Scouts
Crafts can be used to complete rank advancement requirements or just for fun. Crafts are especially important as a way for boys and girls in the Cub Scout program to express themselves and develop creativity. Do you have a craft that you’d like to share? Contact me and I’ll share it here with a picture of your creation.
Wolf Pedal with the Pack Adventure for 2024
The Pedal with the Pack Adventure is a great way for Wolf Scouts to learn about cycling and staying safe on the road. In this adventure, Wolves will explore different aspects of biking, from choosing the right gear to understanding how to ride safely. This activity not only boosts their physical fitness but also teaches important safety skills.
Farm Mechanics Merit Badge
Scouts who are working on the Farm Mechanics merit badge learn to safely maintain and repair farm equipment. They tighten hydraulic fittings, check air filters, and clean equipment used for farm work. Scouts also explore career opportunities related to farm mechanics.
Bear Standing Tall Adventure
The Standing Tall adventure is designed for Bear Cub Scouts. It teaches them about personal safety. Through various activities, Bears learn how to stay safe in different situations. This includes both physical and digital environments.
Make a Soda Bottle Terrarium
A soda bottle terrarium is a fun and simple project for Cub Scouts. It gives them a hands-on way to learn about nature and the environment. Scouts love activities where they can create something, and this project also teaches them about plants and ecosystems. It fits perfectly with the values of Scouting, such as learning by doing and working with others.
Citizenship Football Game
The Citizenship Football Game is a fun way to help Webelos, Arrow of Light Scouts, and Scouts BSA learn about citizenship. It teaches Scouts about their rights and responsibilities as citizens through a game. This helps them understand the ideas in a hands-on way. The game is designed to review what the Scouts learned in their meeting.
Tiger Race Time Adventure
The Tiger Race Time adventure is a fun activity for Tiger Scouts and their adult partners. In this adventure, they get to work together on a hands-on project. They build and decorate a vehicle, like a Pinewood Derby car or a Raingutter Regatta boat. This project is not just about making a vehicle. It’s about spending quality time together.
