Puzzles and Printables

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

Have you created a puzzle or printable which you would like to share? Contact me and I’ll share it here.

Scout Law Word Search Puzzle
The Scout Law is the same for Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, and Venturers. So learning the Scout Law is important across age levels.

Bingo Cards for Scouts BSA (Boy Scout Bingo)
These bingo cards for Scouts BSA help familiarize Scouts with the Scout Law, Eagle required merit badges, some of the fun adventures they can look forward to, ranks, and more. Use them with Webelos who are getting ready to cross over to a troop or with new members of your unit.

Cub Scout Law of the Pack Letter Tile Puzzle
Cub Scouts should know the Law of the Pack, but unless they are reciting it all of the time, they aren't going to remember it. This puzzle will help reinforce the Law of the Pack.
Scouts BSA Basics Crossword for Webelos and Scouts
A crossword puzzle for Webelos working on their Arrow of Light award or for new Scouts BSA who are working toward their Scout rank. This puzzle has clues from the Scout oath, law, motto, and slogan.
Chess Terminology Scramble Puzzle
