What can possibly be in a Cub Scout's pocket? What is in a
boy's pocket can tell a lot about who he is and what he
likes. The boys can share and show off their collections and
maybe even start a new one! Put some marbles in the boy's
pockets and teach him how to play the game of marbles. Pick
an interest of the boys and go on a field trip to explore
and learn about it. Maybe a trip to a rock quarry in search
of fossils, or a nature hike around the den meeting site to
pick up items. This is also a great month to educate the
boys on what can go on their uniform and then make some
goals to accomplish their rank advancement, special awards,
belt loops and pins, and involvement in camps and council
events. This might be a good month to work on the Collecting
or Marbles belt loop and pin.
