This Is Where I Write Other Things I'm Going to Do to Be Someone As Wise As Baloo This is where I write other things I'm going to do to be someone as wise as Baloo Answers: Letter spaghetti on page 59: laugh, help, share, play and talk. [ 69 ] These are words I have learned: middle truthful finger somebody index finger ring finger who always says the truth. little thumb finger or pinkie slothful lazy, idle, someone that doesn't like to do much. John and Peter want to be bakers. Every day they go to Mr Taylor's bakery to learn how. John and Peter are baker's apprentices. Find out and write the meaning of other words you don't know: [ 70 ] Now we're going to tell you more things about life in the pack Like any people, the pack needs a place of its own. It doesn't need to be very big. All you need is a place to meet and to keep important things, like camp souvenirs, equipment, books and trophies. This place is called a den and it is the pack's home, so keep it clean and tidy! Draw your pack's den. If it doesn't have one, imagine how you would like it to be. [ 71 ] The bee buzzes over the daisies. The frog croaks for his heart is broke. The cat mews to get into the house. The lion roars and the grizzly bear snores. The horse neighs and the hound bays. The wolf howls and licks his jowls. All animals have a sound only they make. The noise a wolf makes is called howling, and wolves howl to gather the pack together and find all its members after they have been out hunting. Wolves also howl as if to express their "joy at being alive". Cubs also have a special way of showing they are happy to be part of the pack and keep the law in their lives. This is called the grand howl. How do they do the grand howl in your pack? [ 72 ] Yellow is a special colour for cubs Try repeating "yellow lorry" as fast as you can It's difficult, isn't it! Do you know why the colour yellow identifies Cub Scouts in almost all the countries in the world? When the scouts had only just been created, their badges were embroidered in yellow thread on green cloth. And that's why in many countries in the world, green is used for the Intermediate Sections, that is the scouts. A few years later, when the first packs were created, the colour yellow was chosen for them because it was already one of the colours which made people think of Scouting. Draw and paint your pack's flag. [ 73 ] The council rock When the Pack needs to deal with important business it gathers at the council rock. This is a meeting for the leaders and all the cubs in the pack, even those who have only just arrived and have not made their promise yet. This is because everyone has to give their opinion when important business is being talked about. For example, at the council rock everyone helps decide on the plan which the leaders present for the weeks to come, in which the activities that the pack chose a short time before are organised. [ 74 ] Faithful and affectionate like Rikki-tikki-tavi Rikki tikki tavi, the mongoose, am I. My fur and tail are like those of a small cat, but my head and my habits are more like those of a weasel. I will be curled up on your shoulder, even if you can't see me. At night time I'll sleep by your bed and watch over you as you sleep. Every so often, I'll be coming to see how you've got on. 11 13 14 10 12 15 9 16 8 4 17 5 6 3 18 7 19 2 1 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 40 27 36 38 39 34 35 37 28 33 29 A long time ago I 32 31 30 saved the life of a friend and his family. When you need my help you won't have to ask, because I'll be there before you even realise. Join numbers 1 to 40 and you will see me appear. Paint me as you like to make me the most handsome. [ 75 ] During the rains of a summer in India, an avalanche of mud and stones washed me up bedraggled and stunned in the tangled garden of a small house where Teddy and his parents lived. They felt sorry for me and took such good care of me that I soon became part of the family. I remember that, as soon as I got my strength back, I took a huge leap and landed on Teddy's shoulder. What great friends we have been ever since! I was very fond of my friend and his family and also very grateful to them, for I would have died without their help. Once I was able to show them how much I cared about them, when I saved them from the attack of Nag, the evil cobra, and his dangerous wife Nagaina. [ 76 ] You see, I was in Teddy's garden having a quiet conversation with Darzee, the tailor-bird, and his kind wife Darzeena, when I heard a hiss in the thick grass. I jumped back quickly and I saw two cobras' heads rising out of the grass, their hoods spread. Those cobras thought that I would be filled with terror just to see them. But they forgot that mongooses are not easily frightened. What's more, as my mother taught me, a mongoose's business in life is to fight dangerous snakes. Some time I'll tell you all about what happened. This little mongoose with the complicated name, whose eyes burn with worry whenever a friend has a bad moment, wants to be loyal and affectionate to all cubs, and he is ready to help whenever he's needed. [ 77 ] It does us all good to be kind! What about you... what do you do to be a kind person? On the pages to come we'll talk about lots of things that will help you to be a kind person and a friend to others. [ 78 ] All of us have things that make us feel happy or sad I try not to hide the things I like and dislike, the things I am afraid of and when I am feeling happy or sad People can always tell when we are happy. We also cry about things that cause us pain. It does us good to be like that. Both boys and girls have these feelings. Let me tell you how Mowgli learned about sadness and tears. he first time that Mowgli cried was when he was already a young man and he had to leave the jungle to go and live with humans. He was very startled, because he didn't know what was happening to him. Bagheera explained that these were tears of sadness and that all humans sometimes shed them. "Let them fall," said Bagheera. And so Mowgli sat down and cried unconsolably. Then he went to say goodbye to mother wolf and, hugging, he cried again while his brother and sister wolves howled in grief. [ 79 ] I don't mind leaving my family when I go camping with the pack So many fun things can happen in camp! This page is for you to write the things that happened to you at your first camp. We went camping to The most fun thing What scared me most What I liked best The most What I missed most difficult thing about home [ 80 ] What are you like with other people? I accept what my friends think, even if I think something different As you know, the sixes suggest activities to do and the pack chooses the ones they like most. Tell us about the last game you played to choose activities: What activity did you What activity proposed by propose in your six? your six did the pack choose? If it didn't choose any, What did you think of the how did you feel about that? activities that were chosen? [ 81 ] I am kind to the other children in the pack and I like them to be kind to me Giving gifts is a way of showing kindness! This is an idea for a simple gift, you can make for your six 1. Take a piece of coloured card and draw or trace this seal 6 times. You can use a different shape as long as it is about the same size. Then cut out all six. 2. Glue each figure to a wooden clothes-peg, the kind that are used to hang clothes out to dry. 3. When you get together with your six, give your gift to each of your friends. It'll look really nice if the whole six show off your gift on their shirts! Even better, suggest to your six that they make more to give to the whole pack. [ 82 ] I like to make new friends Family and friends are the ones who love each other most and who have the best time together. Whenever you make new friends, write their names here. These are my new friends His or her name is This is how we met [ 83 ] Are you interested in other people? I talk to and spend time with everyone It is wonderful to feel that other people like you as you are and they don't leave you out for reasons that you can't do anything about.

  • Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a Proposal – December 2011
    Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a proposal – December 2011 Lord Baden-Powell & Duty to God God is not some narrow-minded personage, as some people would seem to imagine, but a vast Spirit of Love that overlooks the minor differences of form and creed and denomination and which blesses every [person] who really tries to do his [/her] best, according to his [/her] lights, in His service. in “Rovering to Success” Reverence to God, reverence for one’s neighbour and reverence for oneself as a servant of God, are the basis of every form of religion. in “Aids to Scoutmastership” Spirituality means guiding ones’ own canoe through the torrent of events and experiences of one’s own history and of that of [humankind]. To neglect to hike – that is, to travel adventurously – is to neglect a duty to God. God has given us individual bodies, minds and soul to be developed in a world full of beauties and wonders. in “The Scouter” January 1932 The aim in Nature study is to develop a realisation of God the Creator, and to infuse a sense of the beauty of Nature. in “Girl Guiding” Real Nature study means…knowing about everything that is not made by [humans], but is created by God. In all of this, it is the spirit that matters. Our Scout law and Promise, when we really put them into practice, take away all occasion for wars and strife among nations. The wonder to me of all wonders is how some teachers have neglected Nature study, this easy and unfailing means of education, and have struggled to impose Biblical instruction as the first step towards getting a restless, full-spirited boy to think of higher things.

  • Worldwide Scouting Edition
    Vol. 5, No. 9 WORLDWIDE SCOUTING EDITION In this Issue: • World Scouting Crest • Worldwide Scouting • Citizenship in the World Merit Badge • Interpreter's Strips • American Scouts in Foreign Lands • 23rd World Jamboree - 2015 Can you name the only patch worn by every Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Venturer? It's the World Scouting Crest. As a symbol of unity shared by all Scouts, it is featured on the uniforms of 28 million Scouts in 216 nations. World Scout Crest Emblem Each element of the crest has meaning: • Purple background = leadership and service to others • Rope and square knot = unity of Scouting throughout the world • Stars = truth and knowledge • Fleur-de-lis = the three points of the Scout Oath or Promise They all come together to symbolize the spirit of fellowship among Scouts everywhere. WORLDWIDE SCOUTING Friendship and understanding among youth of all nations became especially important to Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Scouting movement, when millions suffered during World War One. Soon after the war ended, he hosted the first World Jamboree in London to join together Scouts from around the globe in the name of peace. "Let us go forth from here fully determined that we will develop, among ourselves and our boys, a comradeship through the worldwide spirit of the Scout brotherhood," Baden-Powell told them, "so that we may help to develop peace and happiness in the world and goodwill among men." A cartoon in Britain's Punch magazine of August, 1920, showed a war-weary world expressing approval for the Jamboree's message of peace and brotherhood among all: CITIZENSHIP IN THE WORLD MERIT BADGE The 1911 Boy Scout Handbook included a merit badge for Civics.

  • Wojam Unlocked
    WoJam Unlocked The USA Contingent Official Newsletter Issue #2, June 2018 Let's Take A Walk Around The Jamboree! This virtual tour is brought to you by Mark Beese. Mark is a member of the Contingent Management Team and the International Representative for the Denver Area Council. Where does one begin to explain the massive program at the next World Scout Jamboree? If a circus has three rings, the 2019 World Scout Jamboree will have more than a dozen! Let's go for a virtual walk - scratch that, hike - around The Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve in Glen Jean, West Virginia to get an idea of what a typical day might look like at the 2019 WSJ. First, a disclaimer. The program is still developing and not everything here may be 100% accurate at the time of the Jambo, so be prepared for change! We're going on a virtual hike because this place is HUGE. I hope you are wearing a good (and waterproof) pair of boots, because we'll be walking about 10 miles (16 km) today. I'll meet you at your sub-camp HQ (the big white tent by your camp site). The Jamboree is really a city of 47,000 people camping in six basecamps with about four sub-camps per basecamp (a total of 19 sub-camps). If you do the math, that is about 2,500 Scouts per sub-camp. As we walk down the hill to the main program area, we pass units on their way to one of the many adventure experiences at the Summit.

  • To Our Rover Scouts English Section
    To Our Rover Scouts English Section By Nguyen Van Thuat 2006 Foreword On The 2nd Edition The booklet “To All Vietnamese Rovers” was first published in 1993 and in 13 years there have been many changes in our lives as well as in our Scouting activities. However, formal regulations have not been put in place for Vietnamese Scouting due to the simple fact that the Scout Association of Vietnam has not been officially re-established. Of course all overseas Vietnamese Scout units need to comply with the regulations of the National Scout Association with which they are registered for membership and activities. In updating information on Rovering activities, this edition of “To All Vietnamese Rovers” has been revised to help Rovers respond to their present needs. This edition can also be regarded as a special contribution as well as a greeting from the author to the upcoming Jamboree Thang Tien 8, which will be held in California, USA from July 8 to July 14, 2006. What I’m hoping to achieve, through this booklet, is to provide you with the main features of the Rover Section and its activities, which may be useful and applicable to overseas Vietnamese Rover Crews. The author wishes to thank Reverend Tien Loc, who was Commissioner for Rovers, the Scout Association of Vietnam before May 1975 for his provision of supplementary details when the booklet was reprinted by the “Rover Section Library” in Vietnam in 2004. For this second edition I have received considerable help and support from the following: • Scouters Le Ngoc Buu (Vietnam), Patricia Styles
