Instructions
The essence of this activity is to build a shelter using natural materials. This can be full scale (Scout, Cub or Beaver size) or smaller. If smaller it can be thought of either as a model of a usable shelter (Scouts, older Cubs) or as a den for an elf, fairy or pixie (Beavers, younger Cubs). Once the shelter is complete then adding campfires, tables, stools, gardens, &c can be a great way to extend the fun.
Location
Depending on the weather either build your shelter in your garden or local park or else go and collect materials to build indoors on a smaller scale. If self-isolating use recycling or other household materials in place of natural material.
