Continue the Adventure at Home!
Scouting adventures don’t have to stop after meetings—they can continue at home with activitiesthat encourage healthy habits, family fun, and new challenges. Here are some meaningful waysto keep building on what Scoutshave learned about personal fitness:
Family Fitness Fun
Make physical activity a family affair by going on walks, bike rides, or playing active games together. Activities like these encourage bonding and create healthy habits for everyone. Check out the CDC’s Physical Activity Ideas for Families for inspiration and tips: CDC – Physical Activity Basics
Healthy Cooking Adventures
Let your Scout help plan and prepare balanced meals at home! This is a fun way to reinforce lessons about healthy eating while learning essential cooking skills. Explore kid-friendly recipes and cooking tips on Nutrition.gov’s Kids in the Kitchen: Kids in the Kitchen
Fitness Challenges
Encourage your Scout to set personal goals like improving their running time or learning a new fitness skill. Create a fun chart to track progress and celebrate achievements. Start with simple challenges using this Kids’ Fitness Activities Guide: GoNoodle – Active Kids
Discover more leadership ideas on the Cub Scout Adventures Page, where you’ll find activities that nurture these skills in engaging, age-appropriate ways.
Each of these activities is easy to try at home and supports the personal fitness values Scouts have been learning in their adventures. Have fun continuing the Scouting journey!
