Game: Ball change
Divide the Beaver Scouts into 2 teams, on opposite sides of the room and number them. Place a chair at each end of the room with a different colour ball on each chair. The teams are told which colour is theirs.
When their number is called the Beaver Scout runs to get their ball and puts it on the opposite chair. The 1st person back to their place and all the team sat down gets the point. The Beaver Scouts must remember which end their ball is at, as it will change every time.
