Using red, orange, yellow paper let the Beavers draw around their hands and cut them out – for use later.
Game
Fire ! – Label some cards with the word SAFE, and leave some blank. Turn them face down onto the floor. Divide the Beavers into 2 teams. The Beavers run around being fire engines (or the like) and when FIRE is called they must run to safety – stand on a piece of card on the floor. On the word LOOK the Beavers look at the reverse of the card – if they are on a SAFE card they are still in the game, if not they are out. The first team to have 3 Beavers out are the losers.
Craft
Fire Engine or Fireman’s Hat
Build Camp Fire – using the hands cut out in the coming in game, let the Beavers stick them onto a large sheet of dark paper to make a Camp Fire
Game
Fire Circle – All but one Beavers sit on chairs in a circle facing inwards. They are labelled ENGINE, WATER, HOSE, FIREMAN – don’t forget the one standing in the centre. When their name is called they must change places. The Beavers in the centre must try to sit down. On the word FIRE they all must change places.
