Directions

Before the meeting:

Set up meeting space for Cub Scouts to build their first aid kit.
Place items around the meeting space for Cub Scouts to gather and place in their first aid bags.
Build a first aid kit using the items as a demonstration.

During the meeting:

Explain to Cub Scouts they will be walking around the meeting space and building their own first aid kit.
Pass out the baggies. Ask Cub Scouts to write their name on their baggie.
Have Cub Scouts walk around the space collecting the first aid items. Once they have completed adding items to their first aid kit, bring them back to sit down and discuss the items.
Open your first aid kit and pull out an item and ask the following questions:
- When would you use this item?
- What is the proper way to use this item?
- What happens if this item isn’t in your kit, what could you possibly use instead?
Remind Cub Scouts that a first aid kit is part of the Cub Scout Six Essentials. A, first aid is to be always included in their pack.
