Shopping – This is a variation of Kim's game. Fill a grocery bag with items from your cabinet
before the den meeting. Close to the activity time, add cold items from the refrigerator. To play
the game, put one item from the bag at a time, announce the name and lay it on the table. When
the bag is empty put everything back in quickly. Give boys a paper and pencil and ask them to
write down what items were on your shopping bag.
Who Are We? – Ask boys to bring baby pictures and family pictures to the next meeting. Hold
the pictures up one at a time and try to guess who it is. Bring in family vacation pictures and try
to guess where the family went. (Disney World, the White House, etc.)
Think of other ideas of pictures the boys can bring to show off (first fish catch, riding a horse,
talking to someone famous, etc.) Take some den pictures and make up an album of your
Webelos family or take slides and play music while you are watching them.
In earning the Family Member activity badge, the Webelos Scout will discover how to show love
for his family and how important his family really is. A family member may sign off this
activity badge.
Home Hazards - Before the Den Meeting, set up as many possible hazards around your house as
you can (Safely, that is.) Examples: Pan on the stove with handle sticking out over the front,
metal pan in the microwave, bag of newspapers in the middle of the stairs. (Empty) bottle of
ammonia sitting in the corner, matches too close to the fireplace, gas can in the laundry room,
pills (candy) laying on the counter. When the boys arrive, give them a paper and pencil and ask
them to write down any hazards they see. During the opening period discuss the answers. Are
there some that were not noticed? Ask them to take their lists home and check for similar things
at their house.
