Complete Requirements 1 and 2 plus at least two others.

  1. With your den, parent/guardian, or other caring adult, say the Scout Law. Explain to your den one of the 12 points of the Law and why you think a knight would have the same behavior.

  2. If you have not already done so, make a code of conduct with your den that will describe how each person should act when you are all together. If your den has a code of conduct, discuss with your den the updates it might need. Vote on which actions should go in your den code of conduct.

  3. Create a den shield and a personal shield.

  4. Using recycled materials, design and build a small castle to display at the pack meeting.

  5. Think of one physical challenge that could be part of an obstacle course. Then help your den design a Tiger knight obstacle course. Participate in the course.

  6. Show your understanding of knights' service to others by participating in a service project in your community.

SING IT!

To the tune of Yankee Doodle:

Helpful to the folks about,

And friendly to his/ her brother.

Courteous to the people he/ she knows,

Kind to his/ her rabbit,

Obedient to his/her parents, too,

And Cheerful in his/her habits.

Thriftly saving for a need,

Brave, not a liar,

Clean in thought and word and deed

And Reverent to his/her Maker.

SNACK IT!

Use a package of M&Ms to learn the law. Choose a candy and read the scout law line that corresponds to the color - then enjoy!

#6 | Service Activity

There are so many great ways for Cubs to be of service! It can be anything from helping around the house to organizing a food drive.

One option we think is a great fit for younger scouts is designing cards to send to the troops through Operation Gratitude.
