Description

A calm, seated snack break. Use the time to talk about how a pretend campfire craft differs from a real fire, and to reinforce simple campsite-safety messages.

Resources

- Agreed snack suitable for dietary requirements
- Drinking water and cups, if needed
- Handwashing supplies or wipes
- Bin or rubbish bag

Instructions

1. Ask Beavers to wash or clean their hands before eating.
2. Seat Beavers at tables or in a clear, supervised snack area, away from craft glue and materials.
3. Serve the agreed snack and water. Check dietary requirements and allergies before the session; do not assume a snack is suitable for everyone.
4. While Beavers eat, ask simple questions such as: “Would we touch real logs in a fire?”, “Who should be with us near a real fire?” and “What should we do if we see smoke or an unsafe fire?”
5. Reinforce that Beavers should only go near a real campfire with a responsible adult’s permission and supervision, and should follow the site’s safety rules.
6. Collect rubbish and wipe tables after the snack. Make sure Beavers have finished eating before moving on to the next activity.
