Instructions

1. Everyone should sit in a circle.

2. The people leading the session should introduce themselves
o Who are they?
o What are they looking forward to doing at Squirrels?

3. The person leading the activity should read a register with everyone’s names on. When each person hears their name, they should wave and say hello.

4. Everyone should chat about what they think makes someone a Scout. How do they feel?
You could help people think about things like making a Promise, learning skills, values like caring for others or being honest, or taking care of and appreciating the outdoors.

5. Everyone should find a space.

6. The person leading the activity should ask a question about Scouts. They should give everyone four possible answers – each time they say a possible answer, they should point to a different corner of the room.

7. Everyone should run to the corner that they think has the right answer.
You might need to remind people which answer each corner represents. You could also mark areas on the floor, for example with hoops.
