Dec 09 - Work on this at Home: Parents and Bear Cubs


Advancement possibilities highlighted this month: Achievements 3f, 15a, 15b, 16a (partial), 24b; Elective 9a

What fun when each boy has an artist to identify with and learn about! The National Gallery of Art (http://www.nga.gov/) has an index of artists from A to Z. There’s a name for every boy.

Cub Scouts will do a Good Turn this month, visiting others and sharing holiday songs.

Bear Cub Scout families are encouraged to work on additional achievements and electives that support this theme, such as:

• Achievement 9c, What’s Cooking? For many families, cooking together is an art form.
• Achievement 12b, Family Outdoor Adventures. Hikes can be fun in cooler weather. Your local community may have holiday light displays to enjoy.
• Elective 9a, Art: Find a favorite outdoor location and draw or paint it. Cub Scouts can compare the way their favorite places look in winter to the way they look during other seasons.
