Puzzles make learning new concepts more fun. They are also a good way to reinforce ideas which Scouts might be starting to forget.

Cub Scout Gathering Activity – Core Values Crossword Puzzle
This is a crossword puzzle I made for a Cub Scout gathering activity for a den meeting. It's purpose is just to familiarize the Cub Scout with the 12 core values. The 12 Core Values of Cub Scouting were replaced by the 12 points of the Scout Law a few years ago. But that doesn't mean we can't still use the core values as examples of good values. So use this crossword puzzle as a gathering activity at any meeting where values are the focus.
