7 things that make it Cub Scouts: 1. Sixes: Cub Scouts operate in small groups of 6 where everyone has a say and is involved. The Cub Pack programme should be based around their ideas.
2. Outdoors: Scouting is about being in the outdoors and nature, exploring the natural world and learning scouting skills. 3. Active: Cub Scouting is about outdoor activities and adventures where Cub Scouts practice their skills. 4. Participation: Each Cub Scout is involved and has a say in the Pack Forum. Sixers and Seconders help run the Pack though the Sixer Council. 5. Empowerment: Cub Scouts planning their own programme, with the support of Scouters. 6. Helping others: Cub Scouts help others through small acts of kindness and community projects. 7. Structure: Using programme cycles (Plan-Do-Review) and the Sixer Council to organise your activities.
