Bait and Switch Safety Rules Game

Before the meeting: 

1. Print Bait & Switch Safety Rules Game on cardstock. 
2. Cut out each flashcard.  

During the meeting: 

1. Place the flashcards face down in a pile. 
2. Have Cub Scouts read the fishing safety rules in their Wolf handbook. 
3. Have Cub Scouts pick a buddy. 
4. Explain the game to Cub Scouts. Each pair of Cub Scouts will turn a card over, read it, and shout out “rule” or “not rule.” 
5. Continue the game with the next pair of Cub Scouts until you’ve gone through all the cards.  

Tip: Instead of Cub Scouts saying “rule” or “not rule,” they could say “bait” when it is a rule and “switch” when it isn’t. 

Tip: Laminating the flashcards will make them more durable.
