Twirlers
Let the Beaver Scouts cut out and colour in twirlers
Cut an oblong of paper 6 cm by 12 cm; fold in ½ length ways and cut ¾ of the way down the fold. Let the Beaver Scouts decorate them. Fold in half again and bend the tops over – fasten in place with a paper clip. We which one twirls the best!
Targets
Make 4 large bulls-eye targets (like on the sides of ‘planes) from card. Add scores to each band. In teams the Beaver Scouts have to throw a disc into the target – add up the scores.
Craft: Paper planes
From folded paper – look this up in an origami book
Plane racing – using the planes they have just made
Make 4 A4 labels (plane; jet; glider; rocket) Divide the colony into 4 teams named as the A4 sheets. Give a label to each leader – the Beaver Scouts run around being aeroplane and when their team name is called they have to line up in front of their leader. Be sneaky and get the leaders to swap the A4 sheets!!
