Camp Craft: Learning how to pitch a small tent, safely build a campfire, and toast marshmallows.
Mini-Rafting: Constructing small, lightweight rafts to float or pull soft toys along a shallow stream.
Scavenger Hunts and Nature Walks: Exploring local parks, bug hunting, or visiting community farms.
-
Dodgeball and Relay Races: Active indoor or outdoor games that burn off energy.
Obstacle Courses: Guiding blindfolded partners through safe zones to build trust.
Themed Ceremonies: Fun colony traditions like the "Log Chew" or "Build a Dam" circle games.
-
Badge Work: Earning official Scouts Activity Badges through painting, model making with Lego, or putting on short puppet shows.
Global Learning: Trying out international games, learning how to say hello in different languages, and tasting new foods for the International Activity Badge.
