Jan, 2010 - Work @ Home - Parents & Bear Cubs

Advancement possibilities highlighted this month: Achievements 3f, 15c, 17b, 17e

Power is in the air around us, whether static electricity or wind power, or created by us using chemicals and tools. Boys can explore different types of power that they have the ability to control. Cub Scouts will create one type of electricity and harness another.

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

•• Achievement 16, Building Muscles: Stretching exercises and different physical movements help boys see the power that comes from being physically fit.

•• Elective 2, Weather: The power of weather elements is another type of power to explore. Boys can learn how to read a thermometer, a good lifeskill to have.

•• Elective 4, Electricity: Boys can explore how electrical connections work by creating a doorbell and more at home.
