Before the meeting: 

  1. Become familiar with the Cub Scout Six Essentials by watching the “Six Essentials” video. (duration 4 minutes) 
  2. Set up the room to have 6 tables set up.  Each table will have one of the Cub Scout Six Essentials (one for each Cub Scout). 
  3. Secure additional adult supervision so that there is an adult at each of the six tables who can share with the Cub Scout what the essential is at their table, why it is important, and how to use it. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Gather the Cub Scouts and tell them that the Cub Scout Six Essentials are the six things they should have with them when they go on an outdoor adventure either in Cub Scouting or when they are with their family.   
  2. Review the Cub Scout Six Essentials with the Cub Scouts using what you learned in the Cub Scout Six Essentials video.  
  3. Have Cub Scouts with their adult partner complete the activity on page 43 of the Tiger handbook.  
  4. Cub Scouts are instructed to go to each table to learn about and receive their six essentials.
