This week Beavers completed the Creative badge by making instruments out of various containers and stationery items, bells etc. We made drums, shakers, banjos,coconut clackers and jingle sticks. We had a lot of fun (and made a lot of noise) playing along to "Old Macdonald had a band" and "I am the Music Man." Next week we will be doing the Air Activities badge.
This year we can wear a special challenge badge for the whole year to compliment some of our activities. Our programme incorporates special activities that I will tell you about as we do them. For example, in a couple of weeks we will be looking to North American Indians for our themed night. This links to America. Can anyone guess what all our activities are themed around? OK, we'll be having a Chinese night, an Indian night, a Canadian night...... any ideas yet? The badge can be purchased from me for £1. Unfortunately, subs don't cover the cost of this one so I can't just give it out.
Cubs this week, finished the Communicators badge by completing an obstacle course blindfolded. They had to listen to instructions shouted by their team. Not easy.
Can I ask if any parents/carers/family members or friends have an interesting job they could give us a talk about. Or do you know anyone with a skill to teach or a collection to show? Can you get us a discount on entry to a venue perhaps?
