The Compliment Game

Before the meeting: 

1. Prepare a space for Cub Scouts to be able to move freely about. 
2. Read below “During the meeting” to understand the compliment Game. 

During the meeting: 

1. Gather the Cub Scouts and adult partners and have the adult partners read the Scout Law to their Cub Scout found on page 4 and on the back of the Lion handbook and adult partner Guide.  Have adult partners explain to their Cub Scout what each point of the Scout Law means. 
2. When everyone is done, have adult partners collaborate with their Cub Scouts to complete the activity on page 4 of the Lion handbook. 
3. Have everyone sit on the floor in an open space, include adult partners in this game. 
4. Choose a Cub Scout to start by looking at the person to their left and say something that they like about them.  The compliment must be kind and truthful. 
5. The person who just received the compliment then says, “thank you” and turns to the person to their left and says something that they like about that person.  
6. Repeat until everyone has given and received a compliment.  Then have the person who started turn to their right and have the compliments go in the other direction.
