Below is a sample list of craft supplies that could be used for building.  You may substitute for other craft items or building toys. 

  • Construction paper

  • Cardboard 
  • Crayons 
  • Toothpicks 
  • Craft sticks (popsicle sticks) 
  • Rubber bands

Before the meeting: 

  1. Gather the craft supplies. 
  2. Set up the meeting space to allow Cub Scouts and Tiger adult partners to make their model. 
  3. Arrange the craft supplies so they can easily be shared among the Cub Scouts. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Have Cub Scouts make a model of what they drew that will help the den cross the river. 
  2. Remind Cub Scouts that a model does not have to work.  Let Cub Scouts know that they can use their imagination to make something up to explain how their device would work if it were real.   
  3. When everyone is finished, have each Cub Scout share their model and explain how it works.
