Directions

Before the meeting:

Set up the meeting place to allow Cub Scouts and adult partners to build a castle.

During the meeting:

Gather the Cub Scouts and adult partners to inform them that in this activity you will work together to design and build a castle.
Tell the Cub Scouts and adult partners that castles were built as a sign of strength. It would not only protect the people who lived in the castle, but it also served as protection for those who lived nearby. The walls of some castles were built to allow people to live inside the castle walls, this was usually for those who were providing skilled trades like blacksmithing, butchers, or merchants. The farmers who supplied food to the castle lived outside of the castle walls and would seek shelter inside the walls during an attack.
Have Cub Scouts with their adult partners make a castle together.
When everyone has made a castle have them share their model with the den.
