Create a Bingo card with scouting categories such as “likes to go camping” or “master seller.”
Ask scouts to stand and explain the answer behind the category when they have a match.
Bring candy or small prizes for the winners.
Sit in a circle and have one scout say her name, then the name of a fruit that starts with the same letter as her first name (Caitlyn Cranberry, Robert Raspberry).
Have the next scout say her name and fruit, then introduce the first scout to the group using her name and fruit.
Keep going and see how far your group can get without forgetting the names!
Go around the circle and have each person say his name following by an action verb (Caitlyn Climbing, Robert Running).
Then have everyone in the group repeat the name and verb together while acting out the verb.
See how creative the kids can get!
Have the scouts arrange themselves in alphabetical order, by first names, with no help from the adults.
Make it a competition by dividing the group into two teams and seeing which team can do it the quickest.
Have your scouts stand in a circle. Give a ball to one scout, who has to say the name of another scout before tossing it to that scout.
Then that scout does the same.
Continue until everyone in the circle has received the ball once.
