Back to Front, 17/09/10

Chat: Explain to the Beaver Scout (who may have forgotten what is going on in the meeting – that everything is being done back to front – or just wrongly!)

Prayer and Close

Game: Traffic Lights
The Beavers walk around the room.
The leader holds up coloured cards to control the traffic – red = go, green = stop, amber = slow movement
Don’t forget to add traffic noises

Game: Lego matching
Give each team a model made from about 25 Lego bricks.
Can they take the model to pieces, then make another one?

Craft: Jigsaws
Find a number of pictures
Print or stick onto card.
The Beaver Scout have to colour in the card and then cut it up – they are making jigsaws – but don’t tell them that at first!

Game: Run, as slow as you can
The Beaver Scouts sit in relay formation
Prepare pictures of 6 or 7 things for each team - these should have a sequence - eg: to make a cup of tea : Kettle, water, tea pot, tea bag, cup, milk, + sugar
Place these in order in front of each team.
On the word ‘go’, player one must walk to the far end of the hall, taking the last picture and then return to their team.
Player two takes the next to last picture and walks to the end of the hall placing it next to the 1st card and so one.
See who finishes last!
