🦫This evening, the Beavers continued working on our space badge and learned all about the planets and the solar system. 🌎🪐We played a game to compare the different temperatures, sizes, and appearances. We also made a cute craft for everyone to get to know each other - the Beavers learned about the pets and hobbies of their new friends! 😊 (Quite a few said they have four dogs at home! 🤩🐾)

🦫The Beavers had a blast learning their Beaver Promise this evening! We played a few games to help lock it in and made handprint crafts. As part of their membership badge, please help your Beaver come up with 5 good deeds, and remember to send their craft back next Friday! 😀 Have a lovely weekend!

🦫Beavers learned all about the night sky this evening! We explored famous constellations, specifically Orion, Cassiopeia, and Ursa Major and Minor (the Great and Little Bears). They learned about their stories and also made their own constellation crafts to take home ✨.

🦫The Beavers had a blast learning all about Scouting's founding father, Robert Baden-Powell today! We did a race game while listening to the history of scouting. We also spent some time learning about the Membership and District badges and did some fun colouring this evening! 😀

🦫We had a fantastic afternoon with Hare's Corner Cooperative up in Garvagh Forest with Cubs learning to use our senses to move through the forest. We learned a few facts about forest foraging and used our senses and detective skills to track down the secret nut thief! Thank you for a brilliant afternoon!

Thank you Karen for organising this and all the helpers today! Much appreciated!
