We are taking a flight for Make Something Monday!  Paper Airplanes are a fun way to learn about aerodynamics!!

Classic Paper Airplanes: https://cubscoutideas.com/5723/make-paper-airplane/
Round Paper Airplane: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/teach/activity/ring-wing-glider/

Our Wolf Scouts can complete Air of the Wolf and Motor Away requirements with this activity.  Any Scout Wolf to Arrow of Light may be able to use this as an experiment for a NOVA Award if you talk to a NOVA counselor.

Make it even more fun – Talk with a friend and see if they want to build a paper airplane too!!

You’ve probably used up your hiking snacks with all our Wander Around Wednesday excursions – so today – Let’s make trail mix or GORP (Good Old Raisins and Peanuts).

Have each member of your family pick an ingredient (or two) and bag it up for travel treats!  You can find some ideas from this Boys Life article: https://boyslife.org/features/143982/35-tasty-trail-mix-ingredients/

We’ve searched for Animals, Plants, and Litter – Now we look for ROCKS!  Head out on a hike and see how many different types of rocks you can find, and try to identify them.  Keep a couple of smooth rocks for tomorrow!

Webelos and Arrow of Light – Make sure to get signed off for your Earth Rocks requirements!

Make sure your parent logs your hike on your Cub Family Summer Passport: https://public.3.basecamp.com/p/AqAQD4gKhjdXw4m2AkDEbCWn

It’s Do Something Thoughtful Thursday:

A Kindness Rock can brighten someone’s day, even if you’ve never met.  Use the rocks you saved from yesterday (or go find a couple of smooth ones) and paint a Kindness Rock or two.

Leave it somewhere that someone else will find it!

It’s Family Fun Friday:

Yoga can relieve stress and improve flexibility – Learn and practice a yoga pose with your family.  If you use a video yoga class, you can count that as activity time on your ScoutStrong tracker.

(If you’ve been keeping up with ScoutStrong – You are almost done with the award by now!!)

YouTube has a number of free yoga videos – Find one that you like to start practicing!

We’ve worked each week on the Protect Yourself Preview Adventure – This week you should be able to finish up any requirements you have left and submit them to your leader.  https://www.scouting.org/programs/cub-scouts/preview-adventures/protect-yourself-rules/

Completing an Adventure at Home is another requirement for the NCAC Scouting@Home 2020 Award! https://www.scoutingevent.com/082-scoutingathomeaward and the Cub Family Summer Passport: https://public.3.basecamp.com/p/AqAQD4gKhjdXw4m2AkDEbCWn

Also – The Protect Yourself Adventure can be used for CyberChip credit.
