During the meeting:

Hand out the small containers of candy, the Tasty Predictions worksheet, and the pencils to each Cub Scout.
Tell Cub Scouts not to eat it until the activity is over.
Ask Cub Scouts to write the names of each color item on the line within the circle. Then ask them to sort and count their items and to write the number they have of each in the square.
Give them time to sort and count.
Ask each Cub Scout to guess which color has the most items based on what they’ve counted. Record their predictions on a piece of paper.
Ask each Cub Scout how many of each color items they have.
After all Cub Scouts have given their prediction and number of items, add up the total number of each color item to determine which color was the most plentiful.
Announce the most plentiful and which Cub Scouts predicted that color.
Allow Cub Scouts to enjoy the tasty treats or take home for later.
