We are coming up on some prime hiking season. In the spring the temperatures are mild and it isn't buggy yet. So I am reviewing my favorite hiking book - 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles. Hopefully there is one available in your area.
This book will give you ideas to make papier-mache projects to do with your Cub Scouts. This can be helpful for creative ways to help you fulfill some of the Cub Scout adventure requirements.
Here are a few books your kids might enjoy. I've included titles for a wide range of ages. These are great choices to get your kids hooked on reading and to let their imaginations carry them away to new worlds.
This woodworking book has plans for 150 woodworking projects for beginners. It also includes information on tools and planning. This is a good resource for the Webelos Build It adventure or for the Woodwork merit badge.
Looking for information on flag etiquette for kids? This book covers why countries have flags, the history and requirements of US flag designs, and flag etiquette.
This book will help Scouts learn about the identifying characteristics of various reptiles and amphibians. Scouts working on the Reptile and Amphibian Study Merit Badge will find this information helpful.
I was recently asked to review a book on teen leadership. The book is called Developing Teen Leadership: A Practical Guide for Youth Group Advisors, Teachers and Parents. It is written by Dan Appleman who has 20 years of experience working with youth.
My boys loved this book! It shows them how to make miniature catapults, bows, and other projectile machines out of common office supplies. This book would make a great basis for a open house or a just for a fun meeting.
I recently received a copy of Getting Started in Pinewood Derby by Troy Thorne. This colorful workbook goes through all of the steps involved in building a car. My favorite thing about the book is that it is directed at Cub Scouts - who should be doing most of the work on their cars.
This book has it all, from dogs to cats to birds to fish to guinea pigs and more. Recommended for kids ages 4 to 8 who are interested in learning more about different kinds of pets.
I was given a book to reveiw called A Scout Leader's Guide to Youth Leadership Training: Working the Patrol Method. I am really impressed by this book.
