Wolf Cub
Program: (8-11 years of age)
Cubbing is
built around a lively variety of games, crafts,
music, storytelling, playacting and the outdoors.
The Cub program focuses around six activity areas:
The Natural World, Outdoors, Creative Expression,
Healthy Living, Home and Community, and Canada
and the World.
Individual interests and skills are recognized
through simple awards. The Wolf Cub theme is
based on Rudyard Kipling's 'The Jungle Book'. The
'pack' refers to all members in your childs Cub
program. Within the pack, Cubs are broken into
small groups called 'sixes'. A Cub who is asked
to lead a 'six' is called a 'sixer'. The sixer
has an assistant called a 'second'. Cubs usually
rotate through these early leadership jobs based
on age and experience.
After learning a bit about Cubs, your child will
be ready to be invested or formally welcomed into
the pack. Parents are invited to attend the
investiture ceremony.
