BSA has just released a Cub Scout pack meeting plan called Cub Cafe related to this core value. For more ideas for use with this theme, see my Cub Cafe program theme page.
BSA Wolf Den Meeting Plans: Den Meeting Plan 10 – Birds and Family Fun
BSA provides Wolf den meeting plans for Cub Scout den leaders on the Scouting.org website. Today, I am going to go through the tenth Wolf Cub Scout den meeting plan. This plan covers Wolf Elective 13 – Birds, and part of Wolf Achievement 10 – Family Fun.
Fly Fishing Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
The Fly Fishing merit badge will teach Boy Scouts how to tie their own flies and then go after the big catch.
Review – Johnson Shut-ins Campground
A few weeks ago our troop camped at Johnson Shut-Ins State Park in southern Missouri. The campground was completely rebuilt following the Taum Sauk hydroelectric power station disaster in 2005.
Energy Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
Earning the Energy merit badge will help Boy Scouts think about the supply and demand issues for energy in our modern world.
Star Boy Scout Rank Requirements
The Star Boy Scout rank is the fourth rank a Boy Scout can earn. It is earned after First Class. With Star, the focus shifts from scout skills to leadership, service, and merit badges.
BSA Bear Den Meeting Plan 8 – Be Ready!
BSA provides Bear den meeting plans for Cub Scout den leaders. This Bear den meeting plan focuses on Bear Achievement 11 – Be Ready.
Woodwork Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
Boy Scouts make a carpentry project while working on the Woodwork merit badge. Our local carpenters union holds a skill center for this badge every year and the Scouts who have gone have really enjoyed it.
Fruit and Yogurt Parfait Recipe
One of the kid’s aunts, who is a nutritionist, came in and did some activities and made some healthy dishes with the Cub Scouts. One of the recipes she made with them was this fruit and yogurt parfait recipe.
Art Pin for Cub Scouts
Every now and then I see a kid who can make the most amazing intricate drawings. It is a real gift. If you know a Cub Scout with some artistic talent, encourage him to earn the Art pin from the Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program.
BSA Webelos Den Meeting Plans: 9 – Geologist
BSA provides Webelos den meeting plans for Cub Scout den leaders on the Scouting.org website. The ninth Webelos den meeting plan focuses on the Geologist Activity Badge. Webelos learn about the history of earth and rocks while working on the Geologist activity badge.
Chicken Wrap Recipe
At our March Pack meeting the Cub Scouts worked on the Nutrition belt loop. A nutritionist came in and did some great activities with the Cub Scouts, including bringing in a chicken wrap recipe and letting each Cub Scout make his own chicken wrap.
Dog Care Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
Our local Humane Society does a Dog Care merit badge skill center for Boy Scouts once or twice a year. Several of our Scouts have gone and been enthusiastic about what they learned.

Woodgas Camp Stove Giveaway
Last week, I reviewed a Woodgas stove I received. The good news is that they sent me a second stove to give away to a reader. To enter, just sign up for the Scouter Mom email newsletter.
Horseback Riding Pin for Cub Scouts
Some younger Scouts will find horses intimidating, but others will be completely comfortable around them. If your Cub Scout loves being around horses, he can earn the Horseback Riding pin from the Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program.
Bugling Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
In 2010, BSA announced that it was going to discontinue the Bugling merit badge and merge it into the Music merit badge. The response to this announcement was so overwhelming that BSA reversed this decision and Bugling remains a separate badge.
BSA Methods – The Outdoors
One of the methods for Boy Scouts is “the outdoors”. Being outdoors presents Boy Scouts with challenges and adventures. Boys enjoy the independence of getting away from home and taking care of themselves.
Model Design and Building Merit Badge for Boy Scouts
Boy Scouts who enjoy building models from kits can challenge themselves further when they earn the Model Design and Building merit badge. For this badge they must build one model without starting from a kit.
