Before the meeting:

1. Gather materials for the activity.
2. Set up meeting space for Cub Scouts to be able to work in pairs on their video.
3. Set out examples of camping gear. Being able to see and touch the gear will help Cub Scouts visualize the product for which they are making improvements. They can use these in their video.

During the meeting:

1. Explain to Cub Scouts that they are going to design their own improvement to a piece of camping gear and then video record each other explaining their changes. They should pick a specific piece of gear. Ideas include:
   • Tent
   • Backpack
   • Water bottle
2. Give Cub Scouts time to think about their proposed improvements to a camping item.
3. Have Cub Scouts record their presentation and then share with their patrol.
