Work on this at home - Parents and Wolf Cubs

Advancement possibilities highlighted this month:
Achievements 2a, 2b, 2e, 2g, 4f, 7d; Electives 4, 11a, 11b, 17a

This month (November 2009) Cub Scouts will learn more about their country’s flag and how to display it properly. As boys talk about heroes and what it takes to be a hero, encourage
them to find out more about the different kinds of work that people do, for all individuals have the ability to be heroes to others. Perhaps the den will do a service project this month for your community or neighborhood, such as helping an elderly neighbor with leaf raking or yard cleanup, joining a planting conservation project, or making a difference with a litter cleanup project. Your Cub Scouts will be someone’s hero.

Wolf Cub Scout families are encouraged to work on additional achievements and electives that support this theme, such as:
• Achievement 12, Making Choices: Families can discuss any of the different exercises.
• Achievement 9b, Keep Safe at Home: Heroes keep people safe. Keeping safe at home is a good thing for everyone to practice.
• Elective 16a, Family Alert: Families can evaluate the ways to keep safe by being prepared for what to do in an emergency.
